Hello,

Generally, you do not want to use statistics found on websites unless they are governmental or educational websites which typically have reliable data.  To limit my results to only government sites I smart googled what I wanted.  In the future if you wish to do this just type the words "site:gov" before your google searches.  In this case I typed "site:gov stats on bullying" in google and I found this helpful website:

https://www.stopbullying.gov/media/facts/index.html#stats

The stats show that face to face bullying is still slightly more prevalent than cyberbullying but keep in mind that the latest stats available are from 2015.  These numbers are probably going to change the next time the government collects data on bullying.
