Help When Your Child is Bullied OnlineUIL’s High School Random Steroid
TestingCyberbullying involves the use of information and technology such as
e-mail, instant messaging, the publishing of defamatory personal web sites, and
online personal polling web sites that are used to support conscious, willful,
deliberate, repeated, and hostile behavior by one or more people with the intent
to harm others.Here are some tips to help you protect your children against
cyberbullying.Make sure your children do not respond to rude and harassing
e-mails, messages, and postings. Keep a record of them in case you need proof.
Call law enforcement and inform your Internet Service Provider (ISP) if
necessary.Use web sites that translate the lingo your children are sending or
receiving so that you can understand the words that are being used in e-mails
and chatrooms.If your children continue to receive harassing e-mails, have them
delete their current accounts and open a new one. This new e-mail address should
only be given to a few people they can trust with it.If your children are
receiving harassing messages through instant messaging, help them make use of
the “block” or “ban” feature. This feature can be used to block certain
individuals from being able to reach your child.If you have found that a
cyberbully has set up a web site that is defaming or mocking your child, contact
your ISP and, if necessary, also inform law enforcement to try to get that web
site removed.Get your child’s school involved. Learn what the school’s policy on
cyberbullying is, and urge the administrators to take a stance against all forms
of bullying. Source: National Center For Missing & Exploited Children,
http://www.missingkids.com.It has taken much longer than most people thought,
but the UIL Anabolic Steroid Testing Program mandated by Senate Bill 8 and
passed by the 80th Texas Legislature is set to begin.  Although state officials
refuse to say exactly when, testing should begin sometime in February. This is a
statewide random testing program which will affect student-athletes in grades
9-12, regardless of sport, gender or participation level. That means that each
of the estimated 764,000 boys and girls playing any sport in the state of Texas
– from golf to football to baseball to tennis can be tested, whether their sport
is in or out of season.After holding a formal bid process, the UIL considered
all proposals submitted and selected The National Center for Drug Free Sport
Inc., also know as Drug Free Sport, to conduct the UIL Anabolic Steroid Testing
Program. With their past experience in testing NCAA student – athletes for many
years and their experience in conducting high school steroid testing programs in
other states, the UIL is confident that Drug Free Sports is the right company to
conduct this massive testing program.The UIL has been directed to test a
statistically significant number of student-athletes in grades 9-12. The program
will be funded by taxpayers and the Legislature has set aside $6 million for a
two year program. Read more...
