I have been following a story about a 27year old lady who committed suicide by throwing herself infront of an oncoming vehicle.
It is reported that she did this after being trolled online for things she did in the past.
The sad part is she left behind a 3year old daughter(I feel she was being selfish not thinking of her baby)
It came to my realisation that bullying online is so real and it requires us to be careful with how we express ourselves so as not to affect other people emotional wellbeing.
Coz not all of us have strong emotional support system.Have you ever witness or experience this?

It's really sad. I heard about cyber bullying, but this one is worst. She did not even think of her child, hope somebody is there to take care of the child.

It's sad that people bully
others whether it's on the Internet
or real life. I think more needs to
be done to protect people from
situations like this!
If someone has other problems or
is depressed I can see how they might
feel there's no other escape! So sad
for her child to lose her mother.
A young lad here killed himself after
being blackmailed online. He thought
he was chatting to a girl she persuaded
him to send pictures. They then started
blackmailing him to give them money
or they'd show the pictures and messages
to his friends and family.

It is so sad to know that someone killed herself for online bullying but, I felt more sorry for the baby she left behind ..I hope that cyber bullies must be stopped.

I would have changed my name and everything on the computer and if it happened again block those people.
That is sad to kill yourself and leave a child behind.

It's a very real thing that has very few consequences for the people doing the bullying. I don't tolerate bullies of any kind, and I'm not going to stop doing things because someone else is being a bully. I will however block them, report them, and ignore their existence because they are worthless to me. I have also exposed them for the pathetic people they are. Nothing makes a bully sign off faster than suddenly being exposed. There must have been more going on in her life for her to have done what she did.
