Updated: November 19, 2010
A new feature on facebook is aimed at stopping cyber-bullies. Using the "find help" tool -- teens can report abuse, bullying and sexual harassment -- and get connected to counseling with a single click.
The move comes on the heels of a string of teen suicides across the country.
In addition to counseling resources, the tool gives advice on how to report cyber-bullies. A common mistake is to delete the bullying comment or text message before reporting it.
