You should know that she lives in US, most of US people have no clue about the outside world (they dont know they live in the richest country, have huge salaries for the work done etc...) and if they do they just dont give a shit about it and live their life without caring. This is especially true if they are young like she was and her bullies were.


You should try reading the OP... nice USA bashing attempt though. What's up with French people and hating the US? Is it really all over that French/Freedom fries thing?

I'm half French and what's with generalization? A French says a retarded thing and you say French people hate the US? Nice French bashing attempt though.

Anyway, pain is always pain. And teens are hard years because you don't have the recoil to put your pain in perspective.

This thread is so disturbing. There are people here who seem to think she's weak because somehow this emotionally disturbed 15 year old girl should have been acting rationally. If that's how you feel, congratulations, you may be stable adult (maybe). But obviously that doesn't make you smart. Why the hell would you assume that everyone is stable, or everyone should be? Don't be idiots. Humans are emotional animals, you can't expect every person to be able to sustain this kind of abuse without being seriously disturbed. If YOU could, good for you - but you're not any better than those who can't.

Try to be reasonable. It doesn't matter if you can find examples of people who have it worse.

Edit: @above: what do you say to anorexics when they die? People are starving and you think eating is bad, terrible character deserves it. You are literally inhumane

Basically i see the position come up that it is her fault and a little note at the end that her parents should haveraised her better.


That's the sadness of this story. She didn't have the decision making prowress we had when we were little, and really her flashing on the internet is akin to he first time we watched porn or when we stole a bra from our friends sister or something. The unfortunate part is creepy fux on the internet.

Furthermore, she was never able to self actualize because of her reputation. No security or self confidence.

Everyone who bullied her and that creep on the internet shud be jailed, and because of the nature of maturing children it wasnt her fault completely or even mostly

it is a terrible tragedy to loose a young person like that.
bullying happens everyday, and she was one of the many victims.

however i don't mean to offend, but bullying didn't take her life. She was definetely living in a disfunctional home which put a great burden on her back, and she broke and killed herself. a tragedy, but those kids are not at fault for her life. people kill themselves for more than one reason. we can accomplish nothing by blaming and shaming the young kids that bullied her. by all means lock up the guy who blackmailed her and distributed the pics, but kids will be kids and blaming them for a few punches and a few mean words does nothing for the good of society.

Too bad kids these days are not taught how to behave online and how to be safe.
When i was 12 i wouldn't even post my real first name online, let alone where i live or pictures and such. but i guess my parents taught me better.

Though I never flashed any of my body or sent nudes, I too was harshly bullied in middle and high school. I know how it feels to be singled out and target by vicious attacks, even at such a young age. My dad died when I was 13, so I became depressed by that and didn't talk much and was a little bit of an outcast, and even just ignoring everyone and not causing any problems made me a target for this sort of behavior by people who think it is justifiably cool to degrade others. I contemplated suicide all through high school, because frankly, when the initial depression set in and I was bullied, it was a snowball effect from there. Even in my senior year of high school, at a point where I though I had broken out of my shell, people still continued to criticize and hate on me, due to my body (i was 6 foot, 135 pounds. SO SKINNY) and even in regards to people I hung out with. I had this friend Chris who was my best friend from 8th grade, and we never really got the chance to hang out in school due to not having classes together or time to hang out during school, but we would spend almost every day after school together, whether it be in person or over Ventrilo just talking. But, when he and I were to hang out in school together at any point, I would get mocked for being "gay" or a "follower" of him, due to him being popular and me not.

I know what sort of shit this girl went through. Bullying is a huge fucking deal, but I think that it is unstoppable. Kids are just going to continue to troll and parents are going to continue to be oblivious. It's hard to say that retaliation is not a valid reaction, because honestly, knocking heads is the only way you are going to prove that you are your own person and you are sick of it. I feel for this girl, and EVERYONE going through this, because it is crippling. I still feel depressed a lot, and I still feel the effects that this sort of treatment towards me had caused, but I wish there was some way to help this girl. It's sad that there was almost no resources available to help her, and instead just let her get humiliated and blacklisted by every kid in school. RIP.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

Such a stupid and ignorant thing to say. No, despite what many idiots may say, it's not necessarily selfish to end your own life when you're experiencing unbearable pain and loneliness 24/7. I hate this mentality and it consists of merely idiotic victim blaming.

Really? You're calling her selfish? Did you read up on her story?

Anyone who can call someone this depressed as someone who is selfish because they are a friggin' middle schooler is unable to cope with immense pain and [cyber]bullying regardless of where they move, not to mention a cyberstalker in possession of child pornography, is an idiot.

No, she was not selfish.

I'm utterly amazed at all the people in this thread basically justifying the acts or even stating that "well you don't have to use social media" (because you know it isn't fucking INGRAINED in society now. It's hardly different than posting the damn picture of her on a poster at school. You can't escape social media if social media wants to focus on you).


Killing yourself is selfish. It's the definition of selfish, because you're caring more about your own pain than the pain that your family/people that care about you will feel.

That being said, all teenagers are unreservedly selfish, it's something about being that age with your whole life ahead of you and just figuring things out which make them self-centered.

To be frank you can't really call her on much of anything. She made dumb decisions, but everyone screws up, and it's a lot easier to do dumb things in high school when it's harder to really have perspective.

P.S I'm a 26 year old businessman (granted, a nerd as well) who has never had a facebook or twitter account because I don't think they're healthy. So no, you don't need to use social media.

Honestly, I can't feel sorry for her. Because she brought this on to herself.

She should have thought about the consequences about her actions, before she acted out without regard

Yes, me. Pain is all relative and personal. I was homeless for half a year and honestly the starving was far from the hardest part of it. Like I said she might have been less resilient and smart than most but saying that she deserved it is absolutely disgusting. She deserved none of that, she looked like a nice girl in seek for whatever affection she could get. She may have had a lack of character (like most teenagers) but hell she's the victim.

So I confirm it you're a disgusting individual. "she got what she deserved" Dumbass.

God I'm done with this thread. The answers here are just amazing. She brought hatred and constant bullying on herself by flashing boobs at 13 and being desperate enough to have sex with a douche?

This is all due to awesome parenting btw, sure just let your 12 year old daughter on the internet unsupervised w/ webcam. Then ignore her while she does drugs/alchohol and cuts herself.

She doesn't need to be on facebook for those pictures to circulate on there worldwide.
Switching schools used to push the problem away, now it followed her.
