‘Bullying is relentless these days – there is no break from it’: Mother’s campaign to close Ask.fm after her daughter’s suicide because of online abuse’

“You should die.”
“Wait a minute, why are you still alive?”
“Go kill yourself.”

“hey were sent to 12-year-old Rebecca Sedwick, who ultimately jumped to her death in September, he said. The messages didn’t come via the social networking sites many of us are familiar with: Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. They were sent via newer, lesser-known social applications called Ask.fm and Kik, according to Judd.”     –http://www.cnn.com/2013/10/10/living/parents-new-apps-bullying/

“Ask.fm has been the recipient of heavy criticism from anti-bullying charities because of the fact that it allows users to post both anonymous comments and questions which are often of a sexual or insulting nature. According to the charity BeatBullying, one in three young people are victims of online bullying and that Ask.fm is among the top offenders.”

     In response to Rebecca Sedwick’s tragic suicide, I believe that her mother is somewhat accountable for her death. You’ve taken her phone before when it came to cyber bullying, but then gave it back which resulted in the bullying continuing, which resulted ultimately in her death. The parents of the bullies are also to blame, because how are so you oblivious to your child physically hurting someone else? I understand that children can be sneaky, Ivebn there, and I’m still in that phase. However, it’s a parents job not to snoop, nor to be friedly, but to make sure the welfare of their child isn’t at stake for harming anyone else!
