Old Recent Irish Immigrant Asked To School Dance By Football Player; Harassed and Bullied by Sluts, Hangs Self What kind of a school is this? What kind of people are raising the animals who would do such a thing to a little girl of 15? The school administrators ought to be fired and yet their union will protect them and assure the world it was not their fault - if only the high school had more money for security, guards, screening, etc., etc., etc. I wish that parents were legally held responsible for the crimes their children committed up until age 18. We would see parenting take on much more importance than it does now. If nothing else works, maybe fear will force people to actually parent and care about their children. |

Old Recent Irish Immigrant Asked To School Dance By Football Player; Harassed and Bullied by Sluts, Hangs Self What is going on with kids? There was always bullying in schools. Is it that with Facebook and other electronic means that teenagers are getting nastier and meaner? I know from watching a lot of the kids shows some show bullying a lot with the bullied kid not doing anything to report or stop the bullying. As examples see the latest movie with Jackie Chan "The Spy Next Door" where the boy is bullied; or the movie "Shorts" where the kid is bullied. Perhaps taking away some of the instant communication from teenagers and pre-teens would limit the bullying to school hours only, instead of a constant barrage of text messages and messages on Facebook (really beginning to hate that site). |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 849249They have gotten progressively nastier over the last couple of decades. yes they have. i thought my generation was the worst...not by a long shot (gen x y whatever). kids now are blowin my mind. they are rotten. 8th grader in the house and the things that are going on with kids that age, would shock most people. the girls are the worst and the boys take advantage of it and its just, well, awful. and sad. |

It would be extremely hurtful to see nasty personal attacks on social networking sites or to receive nasty text messages. Too many people feel comfortable attacking others via e-mails or on forums that they would hesitate saying the same thing face to face. Parenting was hard before, but unless you watch everything your child texts you will never know if they are a cyber bully. |

Regardless whether it is on the phone or in person. Publishing demeaning things like on the internet is libel. The kids who did those those should be in jail. Dont' be so quick to come down on parents. Good parents can have bad kids. Especially whe they are teen agers and following the leader who is a natural bad ass. I personally know several families who have good kids and one total misfit/renegade. |

Parenting was hard before, but unless you watch everything your child texts you will never know if they are a cyber bully. And... we are 'mostly' anonymous on this site. A child gets a 'nasty text' as you say and then has to interact with the author in class! One change that has been masterful for the system and has further allowed children to be bullied is this: 20 years ago you could stand up for yourself. You could actually take it upon yourself to, after finally getting fed up, beat the hell out of the bully. Or maybe you didn't beat the hell out of him, but at least you stood up and gained respect. Today? You get abused by texts and what-have-you and get to school the next day and see the bastard and get in a fight and... BOOM. You are suspended for a week. Or 2. Then parent (s) are called and they are pissed off at THEIR CHILD for standing up because now they can't each work all day with their kid at home. What's a kid left to do???

Do we give toddlers the keys to a 747? We basically did that equivalent with the primitives. It ruined countless millions of lives. They weren't ready. Giving people things before they are emotionally or psychologically ready is a disaster. None of these brats needs a phone, needs a computer except for homework. They do not need to text 200 texts a month and Twitter. Yes twitter, like Twits. They aren't adults and shouldn't be given adult privilege.
