This is absolutely true. As a father of two young girls, its frightening and disgusting.

I didn't trace the email. I don't know the person who traced the email. An anonymous person on the interwebs claims to have done it and claims that Kody Maxon is the guilty party. An anonymous person says a name and the lynch-mob immediately forms. Scary shit. |

God, this world we live in can be so *****ed up at times.
The internet and social media has dulled our actual feelings of compassion. It has given cowards and predators a podium from which to speak, and a shield to hide behind. Sad.

I have a hard time finding a reason not to blame Amanda and her parents for this tragedy. First off why does a 12 year old have a webcam? Yeah it's impossible nowadays to keep a kid off the net, but why buy her a webcam? NOTHING good comes from owning a webcam if you're a child. Whats more appalling is the fact that her parents weren't successful in defusing the situation. Instead they gave into all her emotions instead of teaching her how to learn from this silly mistake.
Then there's Amanda. You mean to tell me she couldn't handle life because there was a picture of her breasts being circulated over the internet and around her city? I find that to be ridiculous. Everyone does things they wish they could take back. But come on.. this whole bullying phenomenon erks me big time. Kids have been teased and bullied since the beginning of time. Now all of a sudden these kids are killing themselves over it? I blame the parents and society for not equipping our youth with ways to deal with "bullying." The dude who kept pursuing her and making life hard on her is a scumbag.. yes I agree. But it's how a person reacts to harassment that opens them up to being bullied. If she just ignored the dude instead of changing schools and posting youtube videos the dude woulda got bored n gave up. And the getting beaten up for sleeping with another girls boyfriend.. that doesnt need explanation. What would you do if you found out some dude was bangin your old lady? Probably load up the shotgun or pound your fist through his skull. Plus she's how old? 15 or something having a one night stand? Where's the parenting?????????? The whole situation could and should have been avoided. A poor girl resorting to suicide over something she did as a 12 year old is sad. Her actions and her parents actions/inaction deserve 100% of the blame. |

Yup, my first thought was "I really hope they got the right guy". If he is the right guy, then nuthooks for him.

Yep, true. The sexualization of children is the problem here.

Yeah but if you listen to the celebrities they model themselves after, then they are simply "Expressing themselves"

Yup. Imagine going through this and then finding out that the guy is around thirty years old, an adult that you can confront. It wouldn't be pretty.
