These were grown men and women ****ing with this little girl, and look at how it got blown out of proportion. These ****ing people had nothing better to do?

As far as it being the little girl's fault, the kid was 13 years old. You know, I hate it when people turn their noses up at people who suicide like they've commited some unthinkable crime against the world. The person was feeling such an intense pain or loss that they thought it would be better that they just died then and there. I mean, can you actually grasp that concept? Do you understand what that would be like? And if you do, why are you then concerned about the people AROUND her? I'd be more concerned about what's causing it. And I'll tell you now, it's not the generation's fault. This generation didn't just magically spawn a bunch of young teenagers who like to kill themselves a lot, they were brought up in a way that allowed for it.

Hey, I'm not saying it was her fault totally and I'm not saying that it was anyones fault fully. I'm just saying that the media seems to want to focus all of the blame on the internet bullies as opposed to other sources as well, and then the parents act all surprised like they thought she was perfectly happy or some ****. The parents here may or may not have been at fault, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out when someone isn't acting and behaving like a normal kid.

People are raised differently today, a lot of kids worlds revolve around the internet (at least indirectly) through myspace, facebook, and other social networks. This makes a severe disconnection with the family, so kids who do revolve around the internet a lot may feel neglected and unwanted, so it makes sense that when internet friends (real or not) dislike her they feel alone in the world, and I sympathize with that.

Does that mean the cyber bullies aren't jerks? No. But it does mean, that despite the media's efforts to blame everything on people on the internet, the root of all this is in fact the internet itself, but what drives a child to love the internet is being, or feeling rejected by friends in real life. Like I've said before, when you go to the internet to escape real life you'll probably end up more hurt in the end.

I think that people are getting too attached to this surreal cyber world where they can be whoever they want. Where they don't have to be shy and timid. Where they can be ten feet tall, but then you get these people who cut that down and it's like cutting out a last life line for some people. When you do that, life isn't worth anything anymore.

Hardly intense pain, not like she came from some rundown family with some Sarah Connor type story, it really is better that they died then and there if you can even consider suicide from that. I've been through worse and i came through the other side laughing.

Some people are tougher than others, think about this, you're a male (I don't know how old you are) assuming you're at least 15 or so. She was a girl (already emotional) and this was a young one at that. She isn't mature enough to understand that some people are just jerkoffs, and she really hangs on to the words she hears or sees.

Especially if she was attached to the internet like that. It's an emotional catastrophe every time she loses a friend on the internet, point being anyways: If you're someone who doesn't have friends in the real world, and you rely on internet friends to feed the hole that leaves it's real ****ing hard to recover when they tear away just for the sake of having a good laugh.

Lol'd.

Though I won't lie, if it was my daughter, you all would be experiencing a second Ragnarok for sure.

Hi?

Oh yeah i read almost the whole story and its pretty sad.

How could those adults do something like that? I would go crazy if I was the father of that girl that committed suicide. It's sad how low people stoop these days. They should get locked up for realz.

you mean suicidal AFRICAN AMERICANS

SHADOWY CYBERSPACE

So...the parents had access and were monitoring her heavily? How did they miss the N for neglected and shut her off right there?


AX AND SLEDGEHAMMER!


"(She) felt this incident contributed to Megan's suicide, but she did not feel 'as guilty' because at the funeral she found out 'Megan had tried to commit suicide before.'"

Wait what..? They keep emphasizing that FINAL MESSAGE and how they never had access to it. Granted, no one really saves myspace messages on the hard drive but there's always a copy on the account itself. Since they had access to previous conversations and such I don't see why Megan would take the time to delete something and then continue to be in a saddened rage of suicide.

I'm sorry, did you actually put thought into that? Because a person's level of emotional pain is dependant on their tolerance for that pain. To her, it was some pretty intense pain. She, uhm, killed herself. It's what you're used to that counts, and for her, this was a devastating event. Whether or not it would have bothered you doesn't even factor into the equation.

Whatever the cause, the fact remains that it's common knowledge that people commit suicide over the internet. You hear about the **** all the time. And for grown adults to play such a personal prank on this little girl even without the intent of causing her to commit suicide is completely disgusting.

This is true, I just don't want a bunch of laws surrounding the INTERNET because of this ****. In the end it's still people who are to blame, even if in part. The internet is a tool and it should remain free as is.

I was pushed.

I really couldn't care less for people like that. The world doesn't need people like that. So i guess killing themselves in a strange way is them doing their part in making the world a better place. This is why we can't have nice things.

Right, because never mind that if she had been treated properly she might have grown to become the next great scientist, who may have discovered a way to save you money on gas (to get personal, since I know you could probably care less if she could become a doctor or something). In any case, ever human deserves a shot at life, and ending it prematurely is just wrong.

If nothing else, GzF has made sure of one positive thing : None of us could possibly kill ourselves or internet assaults. We'd all be long gone.
