                                                                                                                                SafetyWeb - This application likens itself to an online version of the list of emergency phone numbers parents leave children when they are on their own at home. Parents can encourage their children to add a bookmark of the application, called Find Help, to their Facebook page. When their child clicks the Find Help application, they are directed to phone numbers and links for reporting incidents. SafetyWeb advises teens seeking help to take three simple steps before proceeding further after an incident has taken place online:

                                                                                                                                1. Don't Respond - Responding to the instigator, whether a cyberbully or an online predator, may only make matters worse.
                                                                                                                                2. Don't Retaliate - Don't tell the person you are going to "tell" someone, as they may try to delete their post, or delete  their 
                                                                                                                                    profile and wipe out any traces of the offense, making it difficult for law enforcement or trusted parties to assist in the matter.
                                                                                                                                3. Tell a Trusted Adult - Many teens may not feel comfortable telling their parents, though SafetyWeb advises them to tell 
                                                                                                                                    someone: a teacher, a counselor, a friend, law enforcement, or one of the agencies linked to within the app.
