Tragic story of bullying

My heart breaks when I read stories like this one.

We need to address bullying. The schools cannot address it because it didn't happen at school and many schools do not want to deal with it. Obviously in this case and in many others, parents are not discussing it either.

We need to engage our teens and children, we need to reach out to teens and children and talk about respect and love for one another. Will it stop these types of heinous behaviors? probably not entirely, but we can make a difference.
