Melania Trump hasn’t taken on cyberbullying as she promised she would during the final weeks of the 2016 election, but it seems she’s finally begun to find her footing in the White House after three months in her new role. Since it’s been rather difficult to catch even a glimpse of the first lady, and even more so onerous to learn what’s she’s been up to since her husband took office.
Cyberbullying? That's all her husband does. Guess she could just start at home but that hasn't happened yet.
So far all of her events and missed events have nothing to do with cyberbullying. Great job Melania.

Neither Melania nor many others seem to do much about this tragic issue.
A quick search provided the following info:
42% of teenagers with tech access report being cyberbullied over the past year
Of the 69% of teens that own their own computer or smart phone, 80% are active on social media
The average teen sends 60 texts per day - reducing face-to-face communication skills
Teen texting rate is DOUBLE the adult texting rate
Girls 14-17 text more - 100 per day
7.5 million Facebook users are under 13 years old
81% of teens say bullying online is easier to get away with
3 million kids per month are absent from school due to bullying
20% of kids cyberbullied think about suicide, and 1 in 10 attempt it.
4500 kids commit suicide each year
Suicide is the No. 3 killer of teens in the US. (Car accidents #1, Homicide #2)

February 1: Melania Trump hired Lindsay Reynolds as chief of staff to begin filling the vacant office of the first lady. Reynolds, who previously served in former President George W. Bush’s White House as the finance chair for his 2004 re-election campaign, marked the new first lady’s official first hire.
February 3: Longtime advisor, fashion consultant and friend of Melania Trump’s, Tham Kannalikham is hired to begin redecorating the Trump’s private living quarters in the first lady’s new presidential pad. Meanwhile, the Trumps remained silent on when, exactly, the rest of the first family would be moving to Washington, D.C.
Yep she would never hire anyone...lol.

Wow.. grasping at straws for something to complain about I think... No Michelle had a staff all presidents wives do. Just reading what you had to say. February 11: Though a reported miscommunication in scheduling left the Japanese Prime Minister’s wife Akie Abe without her counterpart in Washington, D.C., Melania Trump hosted the Japanese leader and his wife in West Palm, Florida over the course of the weekend, visiting a Japanese garden and enjoying a private dinner – that is, until North Korea sent a missile into the Japanese Sea, causing controversy and commotion at the Trumps' private Mar-A-Lago estate. March 8: Melania Trump hosted a luncheon at the White House for International Women’s Day, promoting values of equality among the sexes and the need for women to help each other climb the ladder of success. She’s joined by first daughter Ivanka Trump and Education Secretary Betsy Devos. you might have missed the second one here. |

So what, you expected her to end the problem of cyber bullying all by herself within the first few months of being First Lady? Maybe if more parents took a little responsibility and actually curbed their children's time using electronic devices we might see a change but that's hardly something Mrs. Trump can accomplish.
Face it, you're just stretching to find things to complain about now and frankly it's getting tiresome.

She's been first lady for a year and has done next to nothing. She can't even rein in the biggest bully of them all her husband. But no one else has either even though they at least tried.
