Angela Jarvis, 45, and Vicky Donald, 38, are backing Children First after the charity declared a 'childhood emergency' in Scotland amid a surge in online bullying.
The mums of two Scots schoolgirls who were tormented online before being brutally attacked have told how their daughters' bullying hell "robbed them of their childhoods".
The child was hospitalised for several days and has since been diagnosed with PTSD. Her sickening assault was filmed by a group of onlookers before it was uploaded online. "There was no getting away from it for her. When children come home, that should be their safe space - it should be their haven. But with this surge in online bullying, they're being tormented all day, every day.
"She'll be 14 soon, but it feels like she is going on 40. She is no longer the sweet and innocent girl that I had sent to high school. She became cynical and I fully believe that the experiences of violence and online harm robbed her of her childhood. Abbie and Kaylynn's assaults were previously highlighted as part of the Record's Our Kids ... Our Future campaign, which has repeatedly called on social media giants to do more to tackle online bullying. As part of the campaign, we have also demanded tech companies to remove violent clips of teens before they are circulated.
