To be honest and I'm not being inconsiderate here, kids can be the most nasty, verberally, physically and mentally because they know no better. The guilty conscience has not really set in at a young age. Thinking of other feelings is usually not considered before an act is done. It is not because they want to be mean or they see it as mean spirited, they just do not know any better. I used to ridicule the odd-ball kid and I as I grew up and wiser, I truly felt remorse and enough to wish I did not do those things as a kid.

With that thought in mind, yes, I see bullying physically, verbally or otherwise is enough to drive a kid to taking his/her life. Young minds are very impressionable and can be easily persuaded into believing anything. Good, bad or indifferent. It is truly sad to read the quote you posted. Some kids can take the BS or talk about with their folks which usually helps them sort it out. Some don't or can not for whatever reason. As you know, we can not find out why they did not talk about because the deed was already done. Very sad.....
