I am so tired of seeing so many cruel posts about Amanda Todd. And I'm sick of people posting questions like "My brother committed suicide cause he was bullied for being fat and gay. Where's his page?" Well, did you make him one? Did you do everything you can to get the word out to people that he did that as a result of being bullied for who he was? I doubt it. And if you did, you didn't try hard enough. Bullying is taken too lightly and not enough is done about it. Yet, people like this just want to complain about their loved one's story not being out there. I'd like to share as many stories as possible, but I can't get all of them (there are approximately 4,400 suicides per year, most linked to bullying). So, people need to share their stories. Get them out there. Do not stand aside and let others get bullied into suicide. Do something about it. Make a difference. Change lives. Do not sit idly aside and then complain that nothing got done, because you can, and should, do something if you have a problem with it.
Back to Amanda Todd: the girl suffered enough when she was alive. It's so disrespectful to continue to say rude things about her after her death. Nobody's family should have to read or see some of the things that are being posted. She made a few mistakes, like every person in the world does, get over it!
