The article provides the justification for the need to analyze the area of 'new media' with regard to the use of digital tools by children and youth with intellectual disabilities. It presents the genesis of the notion of cyberspace as well as the nature of possible consequences associated with inappropriate use of digital technologies. The paper then discusses the categories of negative effects related to cyberspace and the use of new technologies by children and youth with intellectual disabilities. The increasing digitization has influenced the evolution of cyberbullying. There is no highly effective method or solution available to protect children and youth with intellectual disabilities against cyber crimes. Therefore, the idea of reasonable usage of 'new media' seems to be one of the most important tasks for educators, teachers, and parents of children and youth with intellectual disabilities in the 21st century.
