In addition to the numerous benefits that information and communication technologies provide, it also contributes to the occurrence of negativities. One of these negativities is that it adds a new dimension to peer bul- lying, which is already a problem in schools. This bullying, which is called cyber bullying or electronic bullying, is a subject that has just started to be studied in other countries and has not yet been studied in Turkey. This chapter qualitatively examined cyberbullying and exposure of children to cyberbullying. INTRODUCTION New media environments that have emerged with the developments in information and communication technologies have gradually reduced the age of using the Internet and have begun to play a vital role in the daily life practices of children and youth and the development of their identities. Livingstone and Brake (2010) state that social networking sites are rapidly adopted by children and young people worldwide. They argue that it offers significant new opportunities for fundamental issues such as self- representation, learning, building and developing networks, and maintaining and managing intimate relationships and personal privacy. Özkent and Açıkel’s research results discovered significant positive associations between binge-watching behaviour and emotional conduct, cognitive problems, and DSM- IV–Inattention. From a democracy policy perspective, there was a consistently hopeful view that this could enrich freedom of expression and freedom of the press and that democracy would benefit from this development (Özkeçeci 2022: 43).
