Excerpt from an article:
"The truth is," Katz wrote, "many more kids kill themselves then [sic] others, often because of bullying, a subject about which Ashcroft had nothing to say. The question really is whether vicious kids and hostile school environments are turning kids into killers."
He's right. I tried suicide over and over in high school. I stood on top of a building that I'd climbed up to the highest ledge of, and watched the majority of the students below who saw me there, yell "jump jump" A friend who had followed me up there grabbed me before I could.
Bullying is a big deal. It isn't just kids being kids, not when it goes to extremes well beyond the safety zones.
