It is wrong that I don't really feel that much sympathy for teens who commit suicide over bullying ?

[SunZoo]

It's not wrong but it just means you can't connect, yet....

For instance, my grandmother is really up in age. Extremely strong, resilient woman.

She recently had bouts with suicidal thoughts which is something she has NEVER dealt with in her life. It's something I've dealt with though, and something she didn't understand about me, or about anybody else who had those feelings.

It took her almost an entire lifetime to sit on the other side of those feelings, and in the end she wasn't considering suicide because she was sick or that her body is aging or breaking down. She felt suicidal because she felt like she was purposeless.

She felt like a burden to her children and grand children. Her whole motivation for life was being a care taker...now she's having to be taken care of. She feels stripped of her purpose and place in the world.

Bullying a child for BEING THEMSELVES can deter them from taking the paths that really give them purpose which makes them question why they even need to be here.

When you feel like you don't belong or are of no use you will find ways to express that frustration, whether it be implosion, or explosion.

I stabbed my first bully when I was 8. Beat a girl (and her friends) with a garbage can that was bullying me when I was 9.

If you can't stand-up to bullies, fukk you.

Everyone gets bullied to some extent. Everyone deals with it differently. Some use it as motivation to succeed, others shoot up a school like the Columbine kids. People, plain and simple, aren't always built to take the same things you are. But it's important to teach your children to be strong and to defend themselves when need be. People are a$$holes, that's just a fact of life. But when you hit a certain age, you know right from wrong. If you're old enough to know better but deliberately choose to harass someone until they reach their limit, you deserve to lose a couple teeth and get your face swollen like a trip to the dentist.




Problem is, these kids are scared because they don't know how to fight, are afraid they'll get in trouble, or the bully is someone bigger than them. Or even worse, these kids are armed. And just 'telling the teacher' isn't going to do a single thing at all either. So some have no choice but to suffer in silence, without having the know-how of building resilience off that. But everybody has a limit. Some are easier to trigger than others, and that's why you learn to respect other people. Not only because, you would want the same respect back, but you have no idea what that person has on them or what they will do once the line is crossed.

This reminds me of a story between two Latina teens who were best friends, and one of the girls had leaked the other girl's nudes on facebook because they were beefing. Then at one point I guess they agreed to meet up to squash the beef at one of their houses. Apparently, both of them were in the kitchen, probably cooking or something, so one of the girls asked to borrow a knife. So she lent her the knife to the other girl, the girl who got her shyt leaked. The girl who got bullied and had her pictures leaked then stabbed the best friend 65 times. Which is tragic, but.. you see what happens when you bully someone? Could've went the other way where the one girl ended up killing herself, but you just never know.

Life isn't a hollywood film many people forget that. In some hollywood films where bullying at school is part of it, the bullied teen ,usually a male takes up martial arts, or in the end knocks out the bigger more muscular bully and suddenly he is super popular,he gets the hot cheerleader etc etc,.

Well in my experience, often times even if the bullied teen defends himself, he either loses and the bullying carries on, simply because it isn't just one bully or the other kids respect or fear that bully more, if he wins, the bullied teen could find himself punished by the school, and at best he might be left alone but other kids in school despise him even more. And it isn't always ugly or other wise inadequate children who are bullied either, in the case of girls especially it is the very pretty girls who get bullied more so than plainer ones. The worst combination for a child, is a physically impressive goodlooking boy or girl who happens to be shy or sensitive, if you a parent I would advise you to keep a close watch when they start school.

Bullying isn't character building, it not only causes a few time end their lives, and it can seriously damage other children ,a few permanently mentally..They then require taxpayers money to be spent to pick up the pieces. If you are a taxpaying citizen you should even if you don't have a heart condemn the shoddy way schools generally deal with this ,because it is your money that will be being spent,on psychiatric workers, police , prison spaces etc etc .That is on the extreme end, some school bullying victims get over it, some just have a bit less confidence, but the above happens more than you know. I have always thought though, that if you send a child to school with a bruise teachers should report this to social services, even the police might get involved, yet it seems to me, your child may well not be safe at school, where the teachers have responsibility yet nothing much is done to the teachers or school if your child is damaged physically or mentally due to other children assaulting him/her and causing him/her to develop a mental issue,their school performance suffers which will effect their grades and maybe their future.

I actually think children or their parents should be allowed to sue a school,in the most extreme cases of bullying,because I know of the horrendous damage it can do.

Apart from this I want to to say this, we often seem to pay the victim of the bullying all the attention,we either want to help them or we want them to man up, we are saying it is their behaviour that is wrong? But is it? why aren't we paying the bully some attention,? it isn't normal in my view to conduct a bullying campaign against another , in a way we blame the victim, we suggest the victim has defiencencies ,we say the victim is weak sensitve ,etc etc but I really thnk bullies aren't mentally normal either. We ought to be getting social workers involved with the bullies, sending the bully for therapy etcetc, or if needs be punishing the bully much more harshly.

Sounds like the actions of someone with mental issues to me.

I don't feel sympathy for people that commit suicide.

Thinking that kids (or adults) can get themselves out of bullying situations is like telling a person suffering with depression to "cheer up". It don't always work that way and you more than likely think of bullying as happening in one specific situation (yours) to one type of individual (you).

And if you think that someone should kill themselves because they can't react in a certain situation as you'd like them to then you possibly have the mindset of a bully yourself.

"everybody gets bullied"

lets not act like everybody got the same treatment though. Some do get it the worst.

Theres a running gag in the movie guardians of the galaxy. Rocket, a rac00n who was experimented on, has a tendency to seek out handicap people, and try to find new ways to embarrass them because of their disability. Your lack of empathy is a problem. You need to seek professional help.

And rocket himself was torn apart and experimented on, in retrospect that was subtle exposition disguised as a running gag

That's if you tolerate it , but some people are petrified to defend their selves . It all boils down to how you were raised though

Exactly. We can't expect people to handle every situation the same way. I'm not saying we baby them, because that's not going to solve anything, but people have certain triggers that'll set them over the edge. Anybody, under the right circumstances, can become suicidal. I don't ridicule the weak, because at one point we all were weak. And if you let your ego and pride forget that, you're in for a rude awakening. I've seen it happen time and again.

People have to remember... they're not going to be the man or the woman forever. They'll have moments of weaknesses. We age, get old and then we die. Sometimes we're strong, and other times we're weak. And when you're weak, you might not have the bravery to fight because you're afraid you'll lose. Strength is a privilege people tend to take for granted, and life always has a way of humbling those who forget that..

Not everyone was raised in the darkest corner of the hood born to a single welfare mother, Lashawn.

TBH
OP is just a typical person desensitized by this bullshyt commericalized society and coproporate/hollywood controlled culture that pushes agendas to manipulate people and make money off of it.

 

[I'm Billy FUCO!!]

Seemed to me like the coli had a little more sympathy for that white porn chick who killed herself over online harassment, than for the 14-year-old black kid who killed himself over REAL-LIFE bullying
