7th Grade Girl Hangs Herself At Middle School Today

How on earth could you not know your child was hurting so???
It boggles the mind.
Too sad....

Rest now child.

Nick@

does killing yourself mean that you can't advance spiritually in the next life?

for example, this girl was obviously in pain. she chose to end that pain and maybe her life would have gotten better, maybe not. we don't know. but her choice to end living because life was miserable was based on a reason. is her spirit stunted or is this just part of life?

I'm sure God being the Awesome Just God that He is.. weighs all the factors of the situation into play.

She was still so young.

Dear God we have let this generation down.

Heartbreaking

Kill death ratio 0/1. She's doing it wrong.

was anyone abusing her in school ?

Was she black?

If the school system was putting God and Jesus Christ first we would have a united happy healthy population of God and Jesus based students.

May her passing stimulate interest in fixing up that school system.

I have the God and Jesus Christ based system right here

This is absolutely terrible!

One girl, or even ten, twenty or a thousand, is not a generation.

We haven't let these kids down. In fact, we've given them what in many ways is a better world than anyone else has ever come in to in recorded history. American youth are given and education, allowed to study what they want in their own time and have unprecedented entertainments as well as ample food, warm clothing and luxuries that would have been found only in the castle of the richest leaders of old.

And that's the poor people.

This young woman was hurting, but suicide has been around for a very long time and is no more prevalent now than it was a hundred years ago.

The difference? We don't lie about it as much.

We didn't let her down, you and I. Something in her life wasn't working for her, but odds are very good that nothing you or I could have done would have changed or stopped this from happening.

Because Christians never kill themselves? They don't battle depression?

God doesn't fix mental illness all the time, unfortunately. In fact, it's very possible that belief in God is a delusion itself. In that case, basing a society on it is rather foolish and unhelpful, isn't it?

I went to a suicide prevention training last week called QPR (Question, Persuade, Respond)--the bottom like is that if you even think someone my be thinking of taking their life ASK THEM AND BE DIRECT.

Don't beat around the bush and don't try to soften it by asking them if they intend to "hurt" themselves or if they're depressed. Ask them straight out if they are planning on KILLING THEMSELVES.

The biggest mistake people make is that they fear bringing up the topic directly but that is the very thing you need to do.

to painful to read

5 Stars and a suggested pin! As the level of moral depravity of our leadership continues to know no bounds, are children will act as the canaries in the mine. Hope and change my ass! Your robbing this nations children of ever having hope OBAMA!!!

but do you know if it affects a spirit's growth? is suicide always a negative choice no matter the circumstances? I'm not arguing I'm genuinely curious if you have an opinion

100% agree

It's not always just a "cry for help" or being " dramatic" (" attention seeking", etc.). Suicides are often called " cowardly". What a crock of shit. It takes balls of concrete to actually do this!!!!! Poor girl- she was far too young.

I believe that committing suicide would require one to - in the next life (or some life thereafter) - re-learn the same lessons left unlearned in this current/most-recent life. I don't really know where I picked up this belief, but it does resonate with me and it's kept even the idea of suicide off the table for me through some pretty tough times.

Such a sad story. Life always gets better, pretty much no matter what.. Hills and valleys. It'll always get worse again, but only temporarily before getting better again.. "Change is the only constant in life" and all that. The poor girl didn't live long enough to figure that out.

+1

How do we know she did it and that she wasn't murdered?

solid theory I appreciate you sharing

Probably got rejected by some superficial young teen punk that she had a crush on that said her boobs were not big enough...or some other shit.

Fucking sad.

The Devil is working overtime, sadly.

more info from another news channel, but

warning: it's very disturbingly detailed

thanks everyone for your comments!

hopefully this kind of story gets people talking to their own kids about this very serious problem.

If you want BAN bullying then you must insist on BANNING ugly, fat, and dumb people too..

Or we could change everyone and set a moral highground for the entire world. But thatll never happen.

Very sad. But really her parents name her Braylee? I can hear the donkey jokes a mile away. New Zealand has laws about naming kids the US should as well.

What about that kid named Adolph hitler? Does he stand a chance in hell?

Just happened here in Italy too ...... so sad

PADUA - A young student in Montagnana (Padova) took his own life yesterday afternoon at his home. He was only 17 years old and in the Nautical Institute in Venice. The tragedy occurred between 16 and 17 yesterday, while the boy was in the house alone: according to a first reconstruction of what happened to the young man and would have tied an electrical cord around her neck, then dropping from the loft of the stay.

To find the body was his mother when he came home a little after 17. Any attempt at resuscitation proved vain and for the young there was nothing more to do. The body is now at the disposal of the judicial authorities in the morgue of the hospital in Montagnana, but it is unclear whether the remains will be subjected to an autopsy or not. The story investigating the police station montagnanese - which is part of the company Este - which are now occurring on the site of the discovery to the findings of the rite.

I agree with that completely and I'm speaking as one who's been there.

At 19 I'd decided to kill myself (I'm waaay older now!) It was a clear, rational decision not based on a whim. The idea first came to me on my 8th birthday and from that point on, my question was why live? What was the point? It wasn't that my immediate circumstances sucked. I knew people who had much worse things going on in their lives. It was deeper than that. Life itself just seemed so pointless. At every level including spiritually. I'd studied world religions and concluded there was no God and given that you get old, decrepit and die anyway there really seemed to be no point. I was going to shoot myself in the head and worried only about how I could minimize the mess for my father to clean up. Oddly, the idea of killing myself made me feel happy and relieved. I was determined that at the first opportunity, I was going to do it. I told no one. There was not going to be a note. I had no anger at anyone--I just wanted to cease to exist.

Well, the God I didn't believe in intervened in a supernatural way (for which I'm eternally grateful!) It was a true miracle and a story by itself for another thread. But as I sat in this suicide prevention training, I wondered if someone who'd been trained to see the signs had asked me if I was going to kill myself at that time, I think I would've been soooo stunned at the question that I would've given something away in my reaction. And that's exactly why you can't mince words and worry that you're going to hurt someone's feelings or that you're wrong--ASK DIRECTLY!!! ARE YOU PLANNING ON KILLING YOURSELF? ARE YOU THINKING OF SUICIDE?

Your directness may save someone's life!
