R.I.P. - Passing of Famous/Notable Persons

[Jaros]

I was bullied in state and high schools due to my Nationality--Ukrainian--and so my friend a Sri Lankan boy named Trevor took up Karate. We used to go into the gym at lunchtime and train under the supervision of the gymmaster who was and Olympic wrestler for Hungary.
Once the bullies got ear of this the bullying stopped. The gymmaster,Ziggy said at a normal gym meeting ---you, head bullier, and you, being me tomorrow, lunchtime in gym with gloves on. I did belt him around a fair bit until Ziggy stopped it and said shake hands.
We somehow after that became friends---amazing.

:brokenh: RIP Dolly Reading this young girls story has brought back so many memories for me. I too was bullied throughout high school about my weight, my clothes, my hair, anything they could think of, they tormented me relentlessley They told me to kill myself, that no one loved me, everyone would be better off without me, I was a waste of space. All day at school, then I would come home and have message after message with the same thing. One day they finally got to me and I tried to end it all, they had worn me down, they made me feel like no body would care if I wasnt here anymore. If it was not for a suprise visit from my Uncle I would not be here today, 5 minutes later and it would have had a different ending. I am still in therapy to this day because of this bullying and have moved away from the town I was raised because i would see them every day and each time it would bring back memories of what they did to me. People who do these need to be held responsible.

This is the first time I have told anybody outside of my family about this, thankyou for putting up this post

Stay strong and remember everyone has a purpose in life and you are surrounded by people who love and care for you. Focus on the positives.

RIP Dolly, such a sad story. I read that article regarding the other young girl, who actually knew Dolly. The scumbag that caused this will understand their life sentence one day. Sadly it will cause that person to suffer most probably PTSD. Teenagers are cruelly harsh to each other or just people in general to win the statement contest if they feel vulnerable but more often than not to their own peer group. Cyberbullying will never be conquered it's unfortunately here to stay because teenagers of the next generation will do the same. Not all are bad I know but the crap I hear from my boys as we did with the girls is the same as the crap I put up with and caused, there's 2 generations of experience in just one family.

Like Jaros, I too am a furriner (someone that comes from a furrin land) and was teased mercilessly at school about it. Problem was I didn't know I was being bullied so thought nothing of it and got on with life.

 

[aussiefarmer]

It is devastatingly sad and i am not pointing the finger at anybody but in my opinion
a childs social media time should be monitored and made a family event :Y:
and those who will say you cant monitor it 24/7 well i say a child under 16 shouldnt have more than a hour of screen time a day anyway.
The real world is there for children to grow and develop .

Bullying has grown to be sinister and dangerous activity and things have changed alot as i was probably 14 before i even new what suicide was.

My heart is with her family and any other family that has experienced the loss from such a tragic circumstance.

And to the bullies and families of the self centered little sods that get joy from other peoples misery i hope you get yours one day shame on you.

I think I was meant to stop at Oallen Ford that day and meet you guys First time in a long time I have felt comfortable in speaking to someone who is not my family and I thank you for that. I normally avoid people most days. My husband does not like to talk about it, tells me just to get over it, it happened in the past so its gone, but its always in the back of my mind and it is not that easy to forget, so telling it here has helped and if I had not of met you I would never have been on here so thank you again

I concur with the above statements of sympathy for the loss of such a beautiful human being.The'bullying' goes on in all age-groups from kindergarten to pension.Jealousy,conceit, ignorance and racial intolerance, among other's are the likely causes...no punishment will suffice with these types short of life imprisonment of the perpetrators of bullying that results in the death of the victim.
It even has occurred here as well. Sometimes subtly..sometimes openly...but always hurtful.

It's not just teens, but there are plenty of grown trolls out there.

Bella you must be worth your weight in Gold or you would not be here, and we are glad you came,

Nothing but good Vibes for you this end, :Y:

If you don't want to be bullied don't hand out your mobile number to every Tom, Dick and Harry out there and most importantly of all DON"T use socialist media.

Having said that I believe that you can adjust the settings in some socialist media accounts to 'Private' and thereby minimise your presence to trolls. I don't know this to be 100% accurate though as I don't use socialist media. Hell, I don't even run an antivirus program.

So much to say and so many thoughts ..................... a tragic loss RIP little lady 8.(

 

[diggit]

Ive got no time for bullies, end of.
I hope they find the perpetrators.
I hope the family eventually find solace. No chance my kids are getting social media/phones until they're 18 for this very reason.

I dont want to do time because of some bully.

RIP "Dolly"....... a senseless waste of a beautiful little person.

Also a very sad story Bella but I'm so glad your uncle happened along & you're still with us.

No good will ever come of social media & I don't & never will subscribe to it........ & guess what??????? there isn't a lot of things happening in this world that I'm not across.
People really do believe that they couldn't live without their Facebook (wake up in the middle of the night to check it FFS) but from what I have heard & seen (little Dolly) it creates & causes more grief than good. I know my little stance against FB & SM will not make one iotas difference but one day I think people will say "you know Rob was right about that".

Rob.
