Wow, more trolling..

Seriously Troll.



So what you're saying is you are on this thread to just troll.



You really are a Toxic person, I feel sorry for the people around you, truly.
They all asked me to tell you they really appreciate it.

Was this a tragic happening? Yes.
Was this tragedy preventable? You bet.
How could it have been prevented? By the parents being more involved with their daughter and knowing what she was doing online.

Parents of the bullies as well assuming they were around the same age. Ive noticed quite a few parents seem to think their kids are perfect. Not all, but quite a few.

I stopped getting bullied at 13. It never brought me remotely close to suicide but I might have come close to killing the main bully. I was in grade 8, he attacked me and after years of enduring it from various people and snapped and wrapped my hands around his throat. Took three or four people to get me off him. I was suspended, didnt get in trouble at home because my history was well known. I dont really regret it. I was never bothered again. I dont know when I would have stopped if the others hadnt stopped me. I wasnt really thinking, I dont imagine this girl was either when she hanged herself.

And that is all you have to do. Stand up for yourself and they back off. it's all part of going from teat sucking child to independent adult.

Well I was very small for my age, didn't start growing till I was around 16 and was picked on at school continually. Beaten up by the bigger guys..

So my parents had the bright idea of sending me to Judo classes..



Love Judo, went to brown belt..

When I started to grow.. there was payback for a few years.. kicking the crap out of guys that picked on me for years and girls that wouldn't even give me the time of day... well .. ;)

I'm not sure what my parents were doing to me, judo classes, equestrian horseback riding classes, swimming classes and chess clubs.. I enjoy them all, but add that to hiking every weekend, school & home work, and other activities.. I was a busy kid.

Keeping busy instead of parking your *** in front of a screen taking abuse. How novel.

Yes agreed 100%, and more parents need to do this..

Nintendo, PC's rules a kids life these days.. I don't have children, if I did.. I would want them to spend time outdoors, camping, scouts, fishing, horse back riding, skiing.. all the things I did as a teen.

...and still do..

My Atomic skies still allow for some fun, and I just purchased land back east next to a ski hill..

Thanks new friend but it's nothing a highly-skilled trollonoscopy can't fix.


Your welcome. I'm being strictly neutral .

That said, I miss the days when the dos driven dot matrix of Mickey Mouse extending his middle finger bought gasps....:lol:

1992: : OMG stuff...

My wife put her foot down with a "no games in our bloody house" so daughter and I had to go without while aunts and uncles had to return game systems they bought which our kid (and myself) weren't allowed to have. I think we faired okay.
