We believe that bullies should be charged for provoking suicide among today's children of all ages. Although some people might say that it would be difficult to locate the bullies, it would be be easy to charge them because students and family members witness the bullying. Unfortunately, some do not hear or know about the bullying until it is too late. Additionally, some might say that the bullies did not directly kill the person, but their words and actions cause the suicide so it is similar to non-premeditated murder because it was unplanned. Please, if you know of anyone who is experiencing bullying or suicidal thoughts, take fifteen minutes out of your day to give them validation that they do matter and they are worth it.
