Amanda Todd

I have seen plenty of people saying very rude things about Amanda Todd on websites, such as Facebook. This is what I had to say to them...

Okay, I understand some people think she may have brought everything on herself and that she could have been smarter about some things, there is no need to be rude and cruel. People make mistakes, people get scared, there can be consequences to those mistakes. Some people don't know how to handle certain situations as well as others. She was in pain, and the cruel people in this world were not helping her. Although I agree that she should not have killed herself, I'm not going to say anything bad about this poor girl. What I'm trying to say is, it isn't necessary to talk about this unfortunately deceased girl in the way some of you are. Y'all actually disgust me, to be honest. People like you are the reason that people are going through hard times like Amanda did. So, calm down with the rude comments and keep them to yourself, please. At least think of the family. I'm sure they don't want to hear people discuss Amanda in such an unintelligent manner.

We live in a sick and cruel world. While I understand she may have had bad judgment, I believe that what led to her death was not her fault. She was vulnerable when she was younger it seems and that things just escalated out of control since then. She was BULLIED because of mistakes millions of people make everyday, so it's not necessary to call her a "slut" or a "whore" or any of those cruel words. I just wish people would understand this, because apparently many don't and it is really bothering me. I just hope that many of people are looking at this situation and attempting to stop something like this from happening to others. BULLYING NEEDS TO STOP! Rest in peace, not just Amanda, but to ALL of the children and people who have killed themselves due to being bullied and treated cruelly by the disgusting people that live in this world.

Bullies led to her death, not a couple of simple mistakes that  she made that many others make everyday, and some make them repeatedly. She was hurting and in pain, because of people that were cruel to her. And there are sick people in this world that are still making awful comments about her. 

This is a video she posted on YouTube approximately a month before she took her own life; it tells her story.

This is a blog that simply tells the story and pretty much agrees with my thoughts on this terrible situation.

Now that you've seen those, look at these sick people...

People like the ones who made these are bullies. They're the reason that people do something like she did. 

People need to be more respectful of not only the memory and death of Amanda Todd, but to others who have done the same as her and to others that struggle in situations similar to hers.
