FACTS

[@JishinDX]

One of the problems with bullying is that no parent wants to think their kid is a villain. They minimize and excuse terrible behavior and fight administrators who try to discipline their kids and enforce the existing rules. Parents of both the victims and bullies can be willfully blind to the warning signs because they don't want to see them.

[@adonaitdaniel3422]

So?

[@shhhparkyarky6391]

that’s what a good parent is i i would want my parents thinking the worst of me thinking i’m a horrible person

[@carlaijahlee5006]

Shhhparky Arky true but as a parent you have to be mindful of the traits and characteristics of a bully and or victim. And if you can see signs of your kid being a bully you have to notice and talk about it. You can’t keep excusing your child because you don’t want to believe there a bully. You go off of their actions.

Not really the same thing. As others have said, students don't relate to it. The characters are set centuries beforehand with different problems and different lives.

(if he's a counsellor) then the adult can't tell anyone without the students permission.

You can't believe them when they say nobody cares about you and that you're worthless, because if they can't see how beautiful and special you are, they are truly blind.

[@kneecole198]

It's all about conversation. One of the things I noticed in the show is that Hannah really didn't talk to her parents about all the things going on for her. It's essential that everyone feels they're able to vocalize they're feelings. Often people get the impression that their feelings aren't valid or they aren't allowed to feel sad. This needs to end everyone should be promoted to vocalize what's up and that they're not being dramatic.

I had my dad read the book a number of years ago. My mom and I both have been suicidal at some point in our lifetime (my mom attempted when she was 25 and myself twice when I was 16 and 20). My dad has never lived with those thoughts so when I was 17 I had him read the book right after I finished it. I thought it was a way for him to somehow see into my mind in a way and it really helped him understand to a degree what I personally had gone through. Though neither of me parents have watched the show it has sparked talk in my house as well as in their work lives (my mom working in a church and my dad a software company). I think it's important to talk about these things

I'm 13, and my school sent out an email warning parents. I watched it soon after. I have a friend who's suicidal.

[@Lli99CFC]

I sincerely don't understand why people think this show is glorified. The suicide scene itself is one of the most difficult things I've ever watched, they don't make it look appealing. We see the effect it's had on her parents, on Clay - the devastation that those who were close to her feel is palpable. It also raises awareness to a whole host of prevalent issues and as this comment testifies, it instigates discussion. The programme is so incredibly emotive and for me I think they've done well to show how the smallest thing can affect someone, it makes us reconsider the way we treat others.

Ambir91 I think it has made people more open to express their thoughts, the show also displays how a lack of discussion/dialogue can be disastrous. Hannah felt she was alone, had no one to turn to as Mr Porter had let her down. Had he been more sensitive, and thoughtful, which would have represented progressive discussion then the outcome would have been different. I respect your view, but I disagree.

c32 I can see that to a degree, and I respect your view, but you also see at the start of the series people saying that she was lying, still dismissing her after death. I think it shows how terminal her decision is and the devastation that Hannah's death implicates is very powerful. Her parents are a wreck, Clay is devastated, Tony looks after Clay because he knows that he isn't emotionally stable.

[@Lli99CFC]

Coming from a former suicidal person, this show did bring awareness but it also glorified it as well. Telling a suicidal person to "be strong" and "you're stronger than this" isn't enough at times really, all you can do is listen because just listening to them pour their hearts out and being there for them as a shoulder to cry on as well as getting into counseling can do so much. I can't tell you all how many kids I have saved in my short 18 years of life. Kids around my age that are going through it. They tell me they are tired of hearing those words and they just want someone to listen so please. If you have a friend that is suicidal or a child please, listen comfort them and get them the help they deserve. I had a friend who listened and got me help and I still thank her till this day.

absolutely agree. It is great that you've made parents to react to this. Of course there will be a lot of different opinions (even from parents) but it is so important to just have a few people thinking like that. Suicide, depression, anxiety, media and bullying and many more are problems. And we need to take an action, we need to at least talk about it.

Now we need a elders react. Cuz it would be interesting to see what they think about the topic suicide.

I'm so glad this is starting a more open conversation. bullying is a huge problem now a day. I have a nephew who's in 1st grade and he was being not only verbally bullied but also physically bullied in class at some point the little boy who was doing got to the point where he chocked him ( several times) when my sister brought it up to their teacher, she dismissed it as kids playing and nothing was done to the bully. we, however talked to my nephew about standing up for himself even if he got in truoble.. I just don't understand why kids these days are so malicious at such a young age

[@markusthomas8630]

I was bullied pretty badly when I was in middle school and high school and I can remember there were days that I cold couldn't get out of bed because I'd just cry and cry. I can relate to Hannah when she goes to the counselor because it happened to me. "Move on" "girls will be girls" "boys will be boys." And I can tell you I was suicidal almost my entire senior year. People need to talk about this more. Bullying needs to be taken care of. Some people are born with thick skin and some aren't. It's awful to think that some people still think that bullying isn't a thing...

the thing with the show is that most suicide is from mental illnesses like depression and anxiety and the show doesn't talk about any of that. depression is so horrible and even though there are pills to help you can still feel horrible all the time and anxiety can make you worry so much that you can never leave you're house and make you insane

[@Klyptic]

My school just handed out papers to parents about the show. I read it and gave it to my mom to let her know about the show without me telling her. She said the complete opposite from these parents. She asked me if I had ever watched it and she seemed mad so I said no "good. don't ever watch it". I was so angry at her. She has always been too scared to talk about it. When my parents found out about my self harm, they were angry at me and basically told me I was an idiot for it. they never tried to help and even now they're just too scared to talk about it. but it's real and it's happening in your own city or state or even school and you can't run away from it no matter how hard you try

I've been suicidal at several points in my life. I've even attempted suicide. And I think the show did the opposite of glorifying suicide. It just pushed those thoughts even further away from me when seeing how it affected her parents. It helped me, because it really made me realise that suicide isn't an option. That it wrecks and havocs everything and everyone around you, especially your parents. So I really do not see how that is glorifying suicide.

[@milesboop]

The problem is, for someone with clinical depression or anxiety, especially someone who's been suicidal before, this show could be dangerous. Depression doesn't happen so quickly and only to pretty girls; it's dark, it's rough, it's scary. It destroys your motivation to do even the simplest tasks, it sends you in a downwards spiral of self hatred and dangerous thoughts and you have to try your best to get through it. I understand the whole "this show is a PSA about suicide" thing, but it's not done right. It's done in a way that only appeals to people who won't get affected by these things, and it shows. Not all people with depression will have a problem with it, but many of us certainly do. It's driving young people to hurting themselves and attempting suicide, it's dragging already depressed people into the same dark place they fought so hard to get out of, and if people can't see these things and try to put themselves in our shoes, then the whole argument of "we need to talk about it, we need to listen to them" is quite hypocritical. Don't say you want to listen to us and then ignore all the reasons we give you as to why this show isn't helping us at all.

If 13 Reasons Why may glorify suicide, then most of the works of Shakespeare definitely do. Romeo and Juliet specifically, is more like a gang war with a double suicide finale than a love story, yet it is one of the most popular works to be studied in High School literature classes. The topic of suicide is common in literature all around the world since literature began from Feng Menglong to Homer to Shakespeare, so 13 Reasons Why is nothing new. At least it looked at suicide as a theme instead of a plot device.

[@justinmcconnell7343]

Haha, I will take that as a complement!

[@Jana-wb9ql]

Justin McConnell while i dont think 13 reasons why isnt supposed to be watched, it does glorify suicide as a revenge plot to make the offenders of hannah feel guilty, which cannot be compared to Romeo and Juliet which is seen as a way of giving up on life or defying fate, and not thinking that suicide will solve the family feud and everything.
