Suicide- A permanent solution to a temporary problem.

How come nobody wants to stop bullying? Rather, they blame the victims of bullying for not being strong enough?

Bullies will always exist, bullies themselves are weak and often have underlying family issues. Doesn't make it right, but it happens.
Suicide is easily solved by thinking about your situation, talking to people and becoming a stronger person as a result

Good heavens.

I certainly saw what you were doing, but I used your post for my purposes.

I was a bully, and I'd appreciate a thank you from all the people I helped to develop thick skin.

That's just it; they don't have to exist. They're the problem. Why don't we help them?

You used to be a bully? What convinced you to stop being an unwarranted douche bag to people?

"...couldn't quite Reach."
YEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

I feel as though I should care, but since it's suicide and I look down upon it, I say whatever. I don't give a flying damn.
I'm glad she's dead.

Have you ever tried to help someone with a problem that they don't see as a problem or something that they consider to be normal such as verbal or physical abuse at their home from a young age?
Its tough unless they actually want to listen.

This is just encouraging depressed kids to commit suicide rather than seeking help.

That doesn't really answer my question. Why did you stop bullying people just because you graduated high school?

You're right. It's VERY hard. But nobody's addressing that problem, we're just trying to help victims deal with bullies. That's not a cure for the disease, just a cure for a symptom.

Isn't anyone scared to take their own life anymore?!

I wouldn't say I stopped. I'm just around less people I want to make fun of.

I've tried, I'm working at a school at the minute and I've tried talking to bullies. They don't want to hear it, they think its uncool to talk to someone older so they won't open up. None of the kids will talk to them because they're afraid of the bullies. You'd need to get an older person who the bully really respects, which in most cases is either a parent or some celebrity which they have no hope of meeting. If you consider this is the problem for thousands of kids across the world...
Pretty much a bottomless pit.

Do you honestly think taking your own life is something done easily and without consideration?

With the reports of all these suicides I think so.

Here's the problem. Most people just say the person should of just talked to someone or man up to deal with the problems. The thing is with this if you where that person and in their shoes you have to understand all the pressure and problems they are dealing with.

You can't just say deal with it because you aren't them and don't know what goes on in their life. That to me is a sign of arrogance.

It's only being brought up more and more because for the exact reason some other people have stated which is they don't care. I can understand if you don't know the person personally but you have to see it from their eyes. To them nobody gives a damn about them and that adds to the bullying.

Trust me I know from a few people who committed suicide and my own personal thoughts.

When you feel like nobody cares and no matter who you talk to and nothing happens (school, parents, etc) it puts a huge weight on your head. That's the main problem with suicide in todays world. Nobody respects or listens to what others have to say.

You want to stop the bullying? Then show respect to everyone you meet and don't treat them like trash. There's many underlining things that can cause someone to commit suicide. To name a few they can have a biological problem, family problems, job problems, etc. Again don't judge unless you have lived their life and know exactly what they are going through.

This sounds like a bunch of emo nonsense.

All of which would be dealt with if kids sacked up. Don't like being bullied? Punch them in the nose.

I would have bullied significantly less people if someone had broken my nose.
