Firstly, any person who brings un-related individuals in to their punishment method is not an adult. Adults understand the difference between private and public matters. If somebody can't discern the appropriateness of such a thing then they are quite honestly immature and need a lot of ethics-training themselves. Many parents have learning to do before they can teach their children what is a right and wrong code of conduct. Understanding that you must keep certain matters private and not public is a simple thing which a lot of adults fail to understand.
Secondly, a decent parent should be in tune with their child and understand that the stress in their child's life, no matter how seemingly minuscule, can be amplified by chemical interactions in said child's body. They should not become another stress. but rather a person to come to for guidance and leadership. Even if this girl did not commit suicide SOLELY because of what her father did, it was most certainly a contributing factor. Also if a parent would do something like this (cut their child's hair and humiliate her online), chances are said parent was overbearing in other ways which were inductive to the child's problems. The parent needs to be there to support the child and help the child reach a good path in life, not become a punitive warden or ethical zealot. There is some point at which the trauma the parent induces by the punishment is more damaging to the child's development than the "bad" act the child was committing. It is at that point in which the parent should scale his/her punishments. Don't damage your child more than he/she would've been by trying to protect him/her.
Thirdly, with the internet, there needs to be a reformation of who has control over what can be posted. Adolescents should have more rights over their internet privacy than their parents. This would solve a plethora of instances of oversharing information and borderline abuse on the part of the children by their parents, which can harm them later in life as they become adults, even if it was unintentional on the parent's parts. More information is being used against people, and it is important that children have a mostly clean slate upon adulthood.
To say that she didn't try to kill herself because of this shows a lack of knowledge about how suicide victims choose when and where they will commit suicide. Often there is a long period of emotional stress ignited by a traumatic event. This could possibly be said traumatic event.
