    Explanation
    If a griefer is annoying you, taking a print screen can be helpful as it captures evidence of their behavior. Ignoring them is a good strategy to avoid engaging with their disruptive actions.

    Correct Answer
    A. Bedroom
    Explanation
    Keeping your computer in the bedroom is not recommended to help prevent cyberbullying. This is because the bedroom is typically a private space where individuals have less supervision and are more likely to engage in online activities without oversight. Placing the computer in a more communal area like the den or living room allows for better monitoring and reduces the chances of cyberbullying behavior going unnoticed.

    Explanation
    Boys who are gay or questioning their sexuality may be more susceptible to internet initiated sex crimes than other populations. This is because they may be more likely to engage in online activities related to their sexual orientation, such as seeking information, connecting with others, or exploring their identity. These activities can make them more visible and accessible to potential predators who target vulnerable individuals online. Additionally, societal stigma and discrimination towards homosexuality may lead these boys to seek acceptance and validation online, making them more susceptible to manipulation and exploitation.

Additionally, IM's often have features like group chats or anonymous messaging, which can further facilitate cyberbullying behavior.
