Forums - General - The Suicide of Amanda Todd

I've already ranted enough about her this past week, so

In summary, She let it escalate to that degree and just kept feeling sorry for herself. Could have grown up to help a lot of people fight with similar problems but instead bitch out. Wasted the precious gift of life due to her weak will and drive. Will not be missed.

The world is a sad place, I can't believe that this guy stalked an underaged girl and ruined her life like how he did. People make mistakes, and it sucks that the only way she saw out of her predicament was to take her own life. Suicide is never the answer, but she was obvioulsy in a very dark place, and quite frankly her parents failed her more than anything.

The thing is, all over the internet and even on this site, we see people that seem to be hurting. You never know how serious their situation is to them. If you see something and it raises a red flag, don't hesitate to be that shoulder to cry on.


Logged in just to say you're absolutly right.  I already do that, and some times, I get really stressed when they're really low, but, in the end, it's worth it.  Seeing them get better, I mean.  

I don't know how useful it'll be for me to say this here, but, I'll always give an open ear on skype, msn, and yahoo messenger.  Just PM me for one of the addresses.

I don't understand the controversy surrounding this issue, by the look of the story she brought upon it herself, no one forced her to bare boobs, no one forced her to have sex with someone elses boyfriend.. I can't even force myself to feel sad unfortunately, there are alot worse stories out there that don't garner anywhere as much as sympathy as some silly teenage girl that made some attention seeking actions that have ultimately resulted bringing around her own demise. The only ones I do feel sympathy for are the parents, they've obviously loved and cherished her despite the flaws and have moved a few times as a result of her silly actions, yet she still continued and proceeded to commit suicide.

Absolutely no sympathy on my part unfortunately, no one forced her to remain on the internet either, simple solution would have been to stop frequenting the sites and get on with her bloody life. Harsh, but if anything it just makes all the other attention seekers see her as some sort of martyr.

Btw, in no way do I condone bullying, but its not really illegal, and people just need to learn to grow up earlier and not give a shit what others say, by showing the bullies that they hurt you, you're just encouraging them to continue it.

@not stan

If I got the story right she moved multiple times and was bullied at each school... what I don't get if the bullying occured because of her sleeping with a girls boyfriend at one school then moving should have solved this. I think there might have been something more to her personality. But I don't think she should have been assaulted or stalked but deffinitely her flaws should have been acknowledged so she can get the point that people don't like her for her actions and she should stop.



Exactly, it was entirely up to her, if you have a bad experience with something, you stop using it for a while and move the fuck on. By being there she just encouraged the bullies etc. I hate to be the asshole here, but she seriously brought it upon herself by her own silly behaviour and vanity. Feeling sorry for people like that and creating tributes and funds will just encourage little attention seeking progidys to prop up. I got fucking bullied too at school, as am sure did alot of people. What the fuck did I do? Post whiny stasuses and YouTube videos of how hard my vain life is? No. I just grew the hell up and moved on, like any self respecting individual would. No one told me how to cope with it, or gave me advice, its just a natural thing to do.

What I dont understand out of all this is how no one was there for her. I get that she screwed up but hell a lot of my friends screw up and I've never abandoned them. My school never had a bullying problem and I guarantee that if she was in the school i went to she wouldn't have had these problems. Yeah a few people might be pissed at her for sleeping with that guy but I know the whole school wouldn't care because honestly that stuff happens all the time. Drama, drama, drama. Anyways, people behind keyboards are ridiculous.
