Well.. adults don't get why she committed suicide, she did it because she liked someone and was humiliated. what would you do if your wife started spreading all of your secrets? What would you have done in the body of a 13-year-old girl!? Its not the computers' fault. its the users' fault for typing in so much information about themselves. Teems get online to get away from everything that includes school, parents, chores, life. Kids just want to be left alone till someone screws up. So what if a kid has a myspace? just tell them that they are only allowed to type in some information and not all. Like in the city & state. she/he could put any state except the one that they are living in. But what do I know? I'm just a teenager who has lived thought-out this crap.

What has the computer really done for our society, other than allowing perverts and criminals to prey on us and our children. As for Cyberbulling, I have the solution, "TURN OFF YOUR COMPUTER" and stop being a bunch of sissy's.There is far more to Life than Computers and cell phones.

As a former principal-- I have seen the damage that cyberbullying can do to a teenager. This is a real issue...and it needs to be addressed at all schools across the country. It is good to see an area school doing their part in fighting this epidemic.
