The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted all aspects of our lives, causing significant strains to children and adolescents, particularly in the academic and social domains. We use digital cruelty as a broad concept that, besides cyberbullying, incorporates a wide range of hurtful online behaviors involving children. We explore digital cruelty from an interdisciplinary perspective that criminology, mental health, and child development can provide, which will shed light on the effects and roles of pandemic-related strains in developing digital cruelty as a deviant coping strategy in childhood and adolescence. As a takeaway, digital cruelty in children should be examined from multiple angles, where various disciplines contribute to the explanations and development of prevention and intervention programs.
