Schoolgirl 'bullied over parents' divorce' dies on rail track - Polidicks

This really sucks. I wish this stuff didn't happen in the world.

[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;28081762]Where did that come from?[/QUOTE] If you read the article, you would know that some of the rich kids were total snobs. I wish someone could have helped her before this happened, and that someone was at the train station so they could have saved her life.

Parents should not divorce until their children are old enough to live on their own. You put your child on the earth together, you must raise it together. The least you should do is provide the child a loving family, eventhough you don't love your partner anymore. I'm gonna go as far as to say I think her parents are to blame here. I believe the bullying is just a stupid excuse. Who the hell bullies someone about their divorced parents, anyway.

Wow, just thinking about it, it must feel really weird (In a bad way) to get a text message from your sister saying, "I'll miss you." I wouldn't know how I would feel, probably confused or worried. Then you find out she killed herself and everything changes. Man, this is horrible.

Brutal

aw dude that's horrible. she's a pretty girl too, she probably had a good future ahead of her. Shit like this makes me sick.

[QUOTE=Master Mates;28083247]I did as well, at first. But I think letting them live with the knowledge that they were the core reason that this girl killed herself in a fit of depression, leaving her family, and friends in such emotional pain, is punishment enough.[/QUOTE] Some however, are so fucking thick that they can't get that in their head.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of those snobs just acted like they did nothing wrong and will continue on as if nothing happened. Not all of them, mind you, I would hope most would feel some semblance of guilt or remorse, but considering these people would bully someone over this leaves me with little faith in their moral character.

I've been banned for my views on suicide before, so I'll just say this: people are terrible.

An athlete. She could be playing for the Olympics. :saddowns:

This should be a crime. So should encouraging suicide.

[QUOTE=nemmises5;28084594]I've been banned for my views on suicide before, so I'll just say this: people are terrible.[/QUOTE] and you are a prime example

This thread is now about how much of a horrible human being nemmises5 is

Why is the school being so fucking arrogant? They're just using it as an opportunity to point out that they have a great anti-bullying policy - surely, in order for an anti-bullying policy to be "great", it should include actively asking the students about what has been going on lately and not just waiting until the students come to them. If you're being bullied and it's affecting you, you're pretty likely to be suffering low self-confidence as a result therefore you may not feel you can approach an authoritative figure.

what the FUCK.

This is terrible, and I feel terrible for laughing at the puns in this thread. Sorry.

Jesus christ.. How did the bullies react to her death?

Stop with the puns for fuck sake. This is really sad. :(

this thread is cool because that chick is hot

i don't get how a parents divorce can even be something you get bullied about it's so damn common these days

This is just tragic... and highlights the bullying problems in today's schools. My heart goes out to her family, especally her brother. [quote=]A spokesman for Royal Grammar School Worcester said staff were ‘not aware’ of Natasha suffering from bullying and said the school had an ‘incredibly strong anti-bullying policy’. He added that the teenager ‘did not seek any help from staff and we had absolutely no knowledge of it’.[/quote] Yeah, right, my school said the same thing when a girl (a friend of mine) moved to another country over the bullying she recieved (it was in the local paper). I know they were "aware" of the bullying, because I went into our school office multiple times WITH her whilst she was in tears to report that she'd be beaten up, spat at, pushed over, ect. And the same happened with me, I reported being bullied (homophobic bullying because I had a girlfriend at the time) tens of times (beaten up, name calling, being spat at), they did -nothing-, so I stopped coming to school. When the Education Welfare group asked my Mum why I'd been having so much time off, she said "bullying" and the school said "Oh, well, we had ~NO~ knowledge of this apparent bullying!" [sp]and now I'm sitting here thinking, thank fuck I'm in college where people are actually mature and act their age...[/sp] Maybe I'm being cynical, but that quote just makes me think the school are trying to cover their asses. :smith: Maybe they didn't know, but... really...

Passerby its just a schools way of saying NO WE HAVE NO LIABILITY BECAUSE OUR POLICIES STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING IF THEY TAKE ACTION FIRST I've been in the same boat, not for homosexuality, but I was bullied from year 1, and recently I found out it was becasue the ~cool~ kids had done preschool at the school and I hadn't.

People are getting meaner, I tell you from experience, yesterday i went to a new school, a BOCES, its a hands on education school, i walk into the class room abit nervous and one of the kids goes "I don't think we have a chair big enough for him". I looked at him and stated "You're fatter than fuck, why are you talking?" And this was a class full of Juniors and Seniors.

Seems she was too weak for the real world if she can't even handle school bullies.

This happens fairly frequently, but of course we're only hearing of it because it's a rich attractive white girl.

I hate it when 15 year olds suicide. It can be a hard to with many assholes around and few people you can trust. But it's not going to be like that forever..:'( It's like quitting after you've jumped 99 of the 100 walls to a normal life.

[QUOTE='[DJ Ria];28082806']She must have been extremely sensitive, no one in their right mind would kill themselves because they were being bullied about their parents getting a divorce.[/QUOTE] She could have been in an incredibly vulnerable mindset, coupled with (what can be discerned as, from her parents wealth, anyhow) a sheltered life, and the bullying pushed her over the edge. Everyone has days where every minute some manages to make you 'FFFFFFFFFFFF', add in a lack of resiliency, and being extremely unhappy because something you took for granted since you were born has now dissipated, so it's not unreasonable that, in a spur of the moment, she killed herself. Someone should have bullied this girl earlier on so she had a thicker skin, or taught her to speak her mind, or, at the very least, throw bricks at windows and all the other teenage angst options.

Fucking terrible. [quote]Seems she was too weak for the real world if she can't even handle school bullies. [/quote] Thats a horrible thing to say.

We'll probably never know. She could have been repeatedly abused as a child, and this was her breaking point, so she checked out. [quote]popular athlete[/quote] Always the ones to snap from the pressure they've been given all their life. On a more positive but morbid note, at least she died. When I was about 15, I was waiting at the train station and some guy from another school jumped in front the train. He didn't die. He's just completely paralyzed for the rest of his life (which in and of itself is not the worst possible thing to happen, but if you wanted to kill yourself before, you sure as fuck would now). EDIT: Well, this a cheerful 1000th post.

Sorry for not being caring/considerate, but she was hot. What a loss.
