Megan??s parents (or perhaps even Megan herself) might have dealt with the problem by seeking help or limiting usage of the Internet. Adolescence is, of course, difficult, but the actions Megan took don’t really seem to constitute a “reasonable” or predictable response to the “harassment” she experienced...
