  1. I think it is very wrong to bully especially at this girls age.
    These girls are too young to be acting so hurtful in my opinion.
    These girls are only in seventh grade I wish that the girl who got bullied would have not taken it seriously because honestly how much could these seventh graders and what not know about you they are just immature little kids so why should you take them seriously.

  2. What happened to Rebecca was sad. She didn't deserve any of that but the other kids didn't think so. I blame the girls and the parents. The reason I blame the girls is because they did things that they shouldn't have done especially continue to keep bullying. The parents should have been more interested on what they were doing online then just to be their best friends. They should have acted like parents and done the right thing. What Rebecca's mom should have done is told they police along tine ago telling them what was going on instead of waiting and seeing what happened she lost her daughter the most important thing in her life and now she cant do nothing about it except cry and be depressed. Her mom should of done everything she could to help her changing schools didn't really do anything except make it worse.

  3. A 12 year old girl was being harassed by a 14 and 12 year old girl and that lead her to commit sucied by jumping from a old abandoned cement factory. and the cops started the investigation and found the bullies the 12 year old was left to her parents fate. and the 14 year old was arrested because she said that she didn't care about her and posted bad thing about her on Facebook. and after all that the parents allowed her to keep her cellphone even though they were aware of the situation the cops got mad because the girl was allowed to keep her phone.

  4. Who should take responsibility in this case parent of the two girls or their parent? well first parent don't take care of their kids some they don't even talk them about cyber bullying and face-to-face bullying, I think that the kid should take responsibility about their action because they knew that the was wrong and they keep doing it.
    If you don't take of your kids in the beginning later on in their life went they are like 15 or 16 its going to be more hard.

  5. Based on the article about bullying, parents should be responsible of their children. The parents should make sure that their children is being mature for their actions, Because some kids think that its cool to hurt/bully other people, and the parents don't even care about what they do. Parents should be checking their kids phone & media pages, so that they don't attempt to bully someone. Parents should also take responsibility to make sure their kid isn't being bullied and they should help them out on advise.

  6. Rebecca, a 12 year old who killed herself because she was being bullied for almost a year and so. When a person had killed them selves because they we're being bullied by a former friend or just a girl or boy who wants to be respected,and want to feel powerful. In a case like this the parents need to watch what their kids do and what they say also the kids play an important role because they are the harassers and need to be stop before someone else takes their life away just like Rebecca. I personally think that this girl should stay in prison for like 20 years because who knows maybe after her release she might bully someone else and they might take away their life to.

  7. Bullying is a terrible thing I don't know why people do it. Maybe it's because they think it's cool but it's not it can really hurt people and lead to suecide like in the article the 12 year old girl named Rebecca. She killed herself because of cyperbullying. All that the police did was just sent one to jail and the other girl who bulled her was on house arrest but i think that they should of gotten more punished.

  8. Who should be punished for her death. The girls that bulled her or the parents of the two girl? the girls should be punished and take her privileges of any electronic away till she moves out and grows up. There parents should not give them a freebie and just let them be happy for killing a girl. No one should get cyber bulled for any reason! Its just not right for some one to do that! Don't do something that you don't want anyone to do to you in return.
