After the death of Ciara Pugsley, Ask.fm founder Mark Terebin told RTE, “We do understand the gravity of the situation and I sympathise with Ciara Pugsley's family "Of course there is a problem with cyber bullying in social media."But, as far as we can see, we only have this situation in Ireland and the UK most of all, trust me. "There are no complaints regarding cyber bullying from parents, children or other sources in other countries. "It seems like children are more cruel in these countries (Ireland and the UK)." Well Mr Terebin, here is a US based website for the US town of ScardaleNY with the very same warning as Ireland and the UK. "Of course there is a problem with cyber bullying in social media. "But, as far as we can see, we only have this situation in Ireland and the UK most of all, trust me. "There are no complaints regarding cyber bullying from parents, children or other sources in other countries. "It seems like children are more cruel in these countries (Ireland and the UK)." http://www.scarsdale10583.com/201206122528/neighborhood-news/parents-warned-against-cyber-bullying-on-ask.fm.html
