Block The Person
Blocking the person who bullies you through Facebook and other social media accounts can help in preventing cyberbullying. You would no longer receive messages from the bully. This can make the bully give up his act. It is a louder action that you’re not interested in his/her works.

Inform Service Providers
If any person behaves offensive, vulgar and hurts you through online then inform the service provider and block the person from the service. You can also notify Facebook about the person so that they can ask an explanation from the person for his/her act.

Educate your children that they must inform adults when they face bullying through the internet.
