Teen Suicide
I feel like teen suicide due to bullying is horrible. I think it is horrible because you are killing yourself because of what people say about you. Like if they call you fat, skinny, tall, short, gay, or lesbian. People basically kill themselves because of listening to someone ignorant.
Rosalie Avila which was a 13 year old female committed suicide. She was being bullied for 2 years and never told anyone. She lived in Yucapia, California. She was in the 8th grade and attended Mesa View Middle School. She was bullied for being "ugly." She even called herself 'ugly' and 'loser'.
She told her father that she was ugly because she had braces. She didnt want braces no more. She killed herself by hanging herself. Mr. Avila said he found her body hanging in her room after waking up to hearing screams.
The teen left a note apologizing for what she did. In the letter it also explained that she did it because she was ugly and she was a loser. After the parents rushed her to the hospital. The doctors said that she was pronounced brain dead.
Her death could have been prevented by her talking about her problem. She could have talked about it to her parents more, to her teachers, counselers, principal, or any adult in the school. I dont think that I know anyone that has tried to commit suicide. I have never tried to or thought about it myself because I get over the smack people tell me. It is not like if I am going to have those people with me all my life.
