A Universe of Hurt is a clear, evidence-informed guide to cyberbullying for parents, teachers, and policymakers. The book shows how online bullying quietly but profoundly affects young people, from anxiety and low self-esteem to social withdrawal and declining academic performance.

Based on psychological theory and the social-ecological model, the book connects individual behavior with peer pressure, family dynamics, school culture, and broader societal norms. This helps you understand not only what happens, but also why it happens and what you can do about it.

You will learn, among other things:

  • Recognize early signs of cyberbullying and open the conversation safely.

  • Practical step-by-step plans for home and school, including reporting routes.

  • Securing and sharing evidence responsibly, including a screenshot checklist.

  • Use platform settings to reduce risk.

  • Organising cooperation between parents, school and care providers.

  • Designing recovery and aftercare following an incident.

Suitable for: parents and caregivers, teachers and school leaders, youth professionals and policymakers who want to effectively prevent, intervene and repair the digital world of young people.
