Unfortunately, social media is not going away any time soon. There have been many discussions on liability exposures that involve activities on social media. Cyber bullying has also been a hot button issue where parents have the "my child would never do such a thing" mentality. I don't even think kids should be on social media sites anyway.
Let's just say that my clients 17 year old daughter is bullying a classmate online and they decide to commit suicide. The parents of said child sues me for my child's act. Would the HO liability ($300k) and 1m personal umbrella be enough? How much is enough? Does a separate cyber liability policy exist? Just the thought of the day.
