This mother did what ...Oh no...what an awful thing. This mother did what she thought was right, and did so bravely in a public forum. She took a risk and those who blamed her for her son's actions are simply cowards. Did they ever stop to think for a minute about some of the foolish things they did when they were young...or a friend or family member.<br /><br />I'm so sorry to hear this mom couldn't take Sakuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11508656442667275102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3652957.post-21569353496204266262015-06-08T21:15:19.449-07:002015-06-08T21:15:19.449-07:00Agree!

I hope thi...OMG! What a tragic and sad commentary! I hope this is on their collective conscience for life. I was bullied in 6th grade by kids and throughout high school by a bunch of nuns, one of which apologized later. It is hurtful and leaves lasting scars but I feel worse for the person who felt she needed a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Just damn sad! May she rest in peace!

She was a good enough parent to speak up and let people know it was her son and that she'd done all she could. She could have kept quiet and let everyone wonder. She stood up...only to get knocked down by bullies. These same bullies who would be calling the school, the police and the parents of Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12017893907395181019noreply@blogger.com
