But that’s the point, isn’t it? The kids that are so maladjusted that they can’t take some teasing off themselves. Natural selection. It’s only a rare occurrence because the kids that fucked up are rare themselves.

You guys don’t think this girl was a stuck up, entitled, whiny princess? She sends naked pictures on her phone and doesn’t like the outcome. Tough shit. So she goes on the local news to bitch about it? What the fuck is that? Since when is getting called a slut or a whore news? Since when is it grounds for suicide? I’ve been called much worse and will be again; we all have.

You send naked pictures of yourself to people, odds are it will bite you in the ass. Let’s not forget the kind of guy that would show those pictures to other girls for the purpose of ridicule isn’t much of a winner, either. This girl picked her boyfriend, chose to send him pictures, and let herself become bothered enough by some simple teasing that she chose to kill herself. The only thing sad about it is that some girl could be this fucking stupid.

People said similar things when a kid from my school was driving drunk and killed himself. How about some accountability? We are all responsible for our actions, and an eighteen-year-old girl knows this as well as anyone. There are consequences to everything you do. She didn’t like them. Boo fucking hoo.

Just as the flaming I’m about to take is a consequence of my actions.

You’re a heart-less son of a bitch (who happens to have a point … damned accountability)

24

Well… you kind of have a point… maybe a touch insensitive… but a point never the less… I think parents have to prep there kids properly, so that they have thicker skin… this coddling/time-outs bullshit has got to stop…

The girl hung herself directly after attending a funeral for a friend of hers, who also committed suicide.

…I don’t think it was the teasing that put her over the edge, but rather the death of her friend!

That’s even worse. If all your friends go and hang themselves, would you do it too?

If their suicides were getting more attention than my continued existence, then, yes of course.

28

I can’t speak for women so I don’t. I can speak for men and any shitbag who broadcasts naked pictures of his ex should be beaten with a bat and taught some manners.

It is called being a man. If I give you something that is intended for you then you should keep it that way. It is like telling someone a secret. It is all about trust and I know that doesn’t mean much to people in the age of information but it still counts for something. People make bad decisions on who to trust some times but if you are a man then you take on the responsibility of being the better person. If we spent more time on being better than the person next to us then we would have one damn fine society.

What we have are a bunch of little fucking idiots running around justifing things by saying “well everyone else is doing it.” She killed herself after going to a friends funeral. AGAIN - I don’t speak for chicks and don’t care to. That will always be a mystery and a source of eternal frustration. If she killed herself because of her friend’s suicide then that is another story. This story is about a bunch of punks who had a laugh and did not think for a minute about the potential suffering of another human being.

If I was her brother and this happened - Johnie-come-texty would be spitting out his teeth and learning to wank with his other hand.

I recieved harassment much more than what was described in the article when I was at school, I did what my dad told me to (fight back) and that made shit worse.

Anyway, bullying happens. It always will. 14-18 year olds are total pricks for the most part.

What needs to be addressed is how kids handle the bullying.

I myself ended up having to drop out & just got personal tutition for the rest of my grades. Got depressed, played video games for 3 years, didn’t grow properly because of poor nutriton/sleep/sitting down all the time and I deeply regret it.

What really needed to happen is that I needed not to care at a much earlier point, much like what Professor X said.

Nothing at high school matters. Even if you are a short shit, fat, whatever. You can get a growth spurt, lose weight etc.
Even if you don’t, you will be better off mentally if you just take a chilled out ‘dont give a fuck’ attitude.

If I was related to the clown that hung herself, I’d fuck up her ex-boyfriend, big time. And the girls, I’d knock the shit out of them too. And then I’d never forgive her for hanging herself.

At least she ain’t passing her gene on. Imagine she had her own children and stuff when she decided the sky was too grey.

We cannot control others’ actions. Not with any degree of consistency, anyway. She chose to trust someone else(her boyfriend) with sensitive information. That information (naked pictures) is now his to do with as he sees fit. She realized this when she gave it to him. What he does with his property is none of her business and what she thinks of it is none of his concern, unless he makes it so. Was it a shitty thing to do? Certainly, but let’s not make her suffering or suicide his fault, please.

33

If you get dumped by your girlfriend, no matter what she did, deal with it like a man.

Pretty stupid of the guy to share her personnal pictures with the whole school.

34

{sotto voce} No flaming necessary.
Ignore the well-meaning potentially grateful nerds (who may someday not look ANYTHING like nerds anymore and at the same time have a career and something to offer society) and date a douchebag instead to impress the other teenage girls who form the center of your universe, be prepared to pay for your actions someday and then be mocked and become an example to teenage sluts everywhere.

My mind says it is well deserved and if it happens more often, we may see some improvement in this clusterfuck of a society. {sotto voce}

{public} It is definitely tragic. Very tragic indeed. My heart bleeds for her and her family.{public}

Come on brotha…he DID deal with it like a man. He made a ho’ pay for fucking with him, at least the way HE saw it. This isn’t a sackless wonder from SAMA who weeps into his pillow when his bitch dumps his ass, this is a direct result of testosterone seeping into emotion.

A most unfortunate occurrence, certainly. Mr. Dude and myself offer our most sincere condolences.

We only hope, by doing our small part, that perhaps such needless mortality may be avoided in the future, and, at the very least, that our companions may try to remain somewhat insouciant in the face of what we consider to be the height of melancholy.

It almost makes one weep.

It is sad indeed. But I have to agree with westclock here-to a certain extent that is.

‘For every action there should be an equal and opposite reaction’. I said ‘there should be’ because it’s not always the case that the reaction ‘is equal’.

The merit weather her ex sent the photos (the opposite reaction) is ‘equal’, or not depends on what she did previously. I didn’t read the article as the sad reality is that only her and him know what happened between them to cause him take that kind of ‘revenge’.

Imagine your girl slept with your best friend and you come to know, what would you do as a ‘revenge’? Taking the ‘sending photos of the bitch on the internet’ approach would be deemed by many as ‘she got what she deserved’.

The opposite would be if she would tell you that ‘she likes another person’ in an adult manner. Probably a real man would walk off and forget about her.

But the shear fact that she sent photos of her nude at such a young age, just shows what a clusterfuck of a society we live in. Nevertheless hearing that this girl committed suicide-whatever the reason is-makes me sad and disgusted at the same time.

But, ALL of the girls are doing it.

You have teenaged girls acting out lesbian male fantasies just so they can be the “it” girl in school for a while. You can’t even blame Paris Hilton for all of this shit anymore.

If you raise your kids to be that devoid of morals that they think acting like that is cool at the age of 18 and under then you can only blame the parents.

In the end, there would be no picture to email to everyone in school if you weren’t acting like a ho.

And yes, I understand 18 years old isn’t a little child, but apparently her ability to cope is still in preschool.

‘you will be better off mentally if you just take a chilled out ‘dont give a fuck’ attitude’.

Depends.

I have been bullied for about 5 years. Started lifting at 15 and at 16 I sent the so called ‘bully’ to hospital. Then proceeded to find his friend and smashed his face with a metal railing. If you have been bullied it means that you where deemed by many as ‘weak’. I started lifting to compensate for this ‘weakness’.

Since then I have grown to be the first or one of the first to deal with ‘shit’ situations-being with personal stuff, problems at work, mates that have serious problems, Distinction problems to be solved at school etc.

Still I got some serious shit to get sorted out, as sometimes learning to be tough, also means to be chronically sad most of the time.
