My seventh grader came home crying on the first day of school this year… She told me, "on the first day I'm crying.. how am I supposed to make it for the rest of the year?" Of course I called the school about the bullying and they did nothing… I just took her out last week and now she is online learning... And the change in her personality is spectacular! She smiles... she has no stress and she's doing the school work... The principal of her old school called me and was upset because I put "bullying" as the reason for the transfer.... He acted like I never brought it up at the school... I kept waiting for the school to send out a bulletin telling everybody there to be mindful of bullying! Nope.. never happened... Listen to your kids… If they are opening up to you about being bullied, they're being bullied and only you as their parent can stand up for them… I'm so sorry for this family.. I can't even imagine how this feels...😢

[@OCVeritas]

Yes! hold the parents accountable. It starts by exposing them. There will likely be many of them as bullies rarely do anything alone. They feed off of an audience and need each other for validation. Name the parents and it will be obvious to everyone in the community which students are the problematic ones. Sometimes it's just one parent in the household sneaking around the other one to rot their offspring or (even worse) other people's spouses and/or children. Exposing the problematic adults forces the decent one(s) in the household/community to address the behavior among themselves. In other words, bullying is learned behavior. Identify the bad parent(s) so the good one(s) are aware of the real problem(s). School bullies are like metastatic cancer. We have to remove the primary cancer in order to make room for healing.

Yes, they need to be held accountable especially after a parent goes to the principal and tells them about the bullying. Even then, they do nothing. The recent school shooting, that child was bullied over and over again even after multiple visits to the school about him being bullied. That principal should also be arrested for such disaster. That principal did absolutely nothing to protect that child and look what happened. Maybe after that principal gets arrested and charged with the outcome, bullying will not be tolerated/ignored.

Everyone (man, woman, child) needs to know exactly what bullying looks like and how to intervene (because punks are always inventing new ways to push people’s buttons). I hope the Gabrielson family starts an awareness foundation on behalf of Hailey.

Until then, you’ll hear about this every single day because nobody is doing anything to punish these kids because they’re “children”. If they’re old enough to bully other person to the point where they want to end their own life or shoot up schools or go to school and physically harm someone, then they’re old enough to take the consequences and punishments for their actions..

I didn't have friends to sit with at lunch or to hang around with at all. I had one friend who was new and as soon as the popular girls took her over that was it, lost my friend. So many days I didn't want to go to school being lonely. I never once thought about taking my life but the pain was so bad for me. I was under such stress I caused myself to get Type 1 diabetes because I was so stressed from school. As an adult I discovered I'm on the Autisim spectrum and this is why it was hard for me to fit in. If only I had known back then. If I didn't have my mom to talk to every day I don't know how I would have made it through those years. Talking to someone makes a huge difference in a childs mental health. Every beginning of the year teachers need to offer a way for bullied kids to know where they can go if they need to talk. It needs to be emphasized first day of school. Bullying will always be there but if kids know where to go to get help no matter what maybe we can help stop the suicides. They should have a sign in every class room with a number to call or how to go to as a safe person. Bless this girls heart and I hope her parents and family can heal soon. I can't imagine the pain they are going through right now.

They should be doing a scared straight on these kids who like to bully other children!

When will bullies be held responsible?

We lost our 13 yr old granddaughter in Feb 24 . We miss her so much and our still trying to understand why she did it . She had left a note wich I still refuse to read. But it had a lot to do with school bullying. One of the hardest things is watching my daughter go through this . Speak up and say something about bullying the child you save may be yours

Bullies AND Their parents NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE!! Also, we need people Psychologists, people who have been bullied and those who bullied go to these schools and talk about what damage they are doing to these kids that they are bullying. So so sad. 😢

I think EVERYONE needs to be held accountable no matter the age … the (bully), parents and the school 💯💯 if a parent or child come to you regarding BULLYING it needs to be taken seriously. Nip it in the bud ASAP

[@Monakhalidi0513]

We need to start holding the school administrators and other people in the school accountable who know about the bullying and maybe they would have laws tough enough to stop it

[@ForkingHippie1111]

Schools need to be held legally accountable when they haven't taken appropriate action to stop emotional abuse and harassment at school.

[@EndPoliceBrutailty]

Agreed 💯👍💯

[@FriendOfCrows]

What happens to the heartless children who are doing this bullying? It's bullsh*t they're allowed to walk away unscathed.

So sad that any child takes their own life because of bullying. These bullies need to be taught some severe lesson for their actions. Sending prayers to the family.

[@H_H_____]

@laurapell2989 Can you imagine how the parents of the bullies feel? I'm certain they are scared of fines and disappointed in their kid(s) and horrified. If they are good people they feel this way.

[@kimwaddell4218]

As a bullying survivor. There's a law that needs to passed to hold to people accountable for bullying. So nothing like this happens again.

[@gracietilert8952]

Deepest condolences to their family. Bullying is evil and Bullies need to be prosecuted.

This why I'm glad that my public school days are LONG BEHIND me. From what I've heard bullying is so much more rampant and far more vicious today than it was when I attended school.

[@susanfrancisquez6190]

My own dad and older sister would pick on me and try to get a reaction out of me and mock me when id get mad or cry. This reminded me of that. When people do that to someone, i tell ya, it's straight up torture and messes with your mind in a horrible way. They made me feel the same, like i was going insane and didn't want to live anymore. These are sick minded people who are cruel and need to be held accountable! This young girl was beautiful and had her whole life ahead of her. This is just so heartbreaking because i can relate. I'm so very sad she didn't get some help and didn't get the chance to talk with someone who could've gotten through to her. I pray her family finds peace and they all have a long happy and healthy life.

[@mariah8595]

My niece’s mom died last year and my mother got custody of her. She was only 7. On the bus ride home one day at her new school, the FIRST WEEK a girl older than her began bullying her and calling her names, talking about her dead mother. It was awful. The school wouldn’t do anything about the girl until we blew it up and demanded something be done about it. Then the next school year another older girl started harassing her and trying to fight her (niece was 8 then, this girl was in 5th grade). In my opinion PARENTS need to be held accountable. It starts at home.

[@lisahowell3468]

It is so awful to lose such a beautiful young lady! No words can lessen this family’s grief and pain, but know you are in my prayers!!!😢

[@95leefamilychannel33]

This is so sad. Bullying needs to be stopped for some students & teachers as well. Schools need to pay more attention to the students & have programs/consequences for bullying.

[@ashL12321]

What will it take for our teachers and other school leaders to uphold a 0 tolerance policy??? to protect those being bullied??? to STOP BULLIES???

[@iiCounted-op5jx]

Y'know what's kinda funny is that these schools will put up "be kind" posters on the wall and call it a day instead of giving bullies any real terrifying consequences. Ironically these corny posters probably directly or indirectly cause even more bullying because y'know how a teenagers brain works

[@coinfliplunatic9269]

Teachers and faculty in schools straight up suck. They do nothing against bullies and its sickening.
