What do you make of this?

Bullying should not be tolerated in any environment and particularly in schools.

It's so sad that this probably went unnoticed by the teachers...the very people best equipped to deal with the situation or at least get expert advice and help.

What a tragic waste of a young life

It goes unnoticed all the time Jim. Hell, I had two clowns after me all through Jr High school. Every lunch period they said to come outside and they would kick my arse. I would always say no problem, let me finish my lunch. I prefer to have my arse kicked on a full stomach. Everyday after lunch I would show up but they never did anything. Called their bluff and they backed off. Anyway, teachers never noticed. I never said anything because it did not bother me.

It's even worse. People look the other way. I have a relative who is a part time teacher. Once she noticed that some guys were bullying someone. As a part time teacher who hasn't been teaching for some years she asked some of her colleagues how such cases are addressed nowadays. She got the answer: Look the other way.
