Should schools be responsible for disciplining students who cyberbully elsewhere?

Teachers should be a lot stricter and more disciplinary. They should be able to discipline the students. Parents should be a lot more responsible for their kids, as well. It's ridiculous.

I think it should be the parents' responsibility because the kid is not in school. If it's in school, it should be up to both the parents and the school. But kids should know the consequences.

No, I think it's the parents' responsibility if it's outside of the school. If the problem is within the school, the school should address it.

Not fully, but they should at least try to prevent some of it.

No, parents should discipline. The school should take care of stuff on school grounds.

I don't think so ... Kids should be reprimanded by their parents. If the school is involved, then yes.

I don't think if it's outside of the school, but they should if it's inside of the school. It's up to the parents, unfortunately. A lot of them don't discipline their kids like they should.

No, definitely not. It's up to parents. Schools shouldn't have to cover any jurisdiction outside of school. It's not up to the school to take care of it.

No. Schools have enough on their plate.

I think they should do something if it's outside of school. Schools that provide computers should definitely have a say, or step in, because they are the ones that provided the medium to bully.
