Protect Your Child from Bullies
When I went to school, calling people “gay” was common and used as an insult for ANY person. I think the media is putting a homosexual spin on this story, when likely it is plain old public school bullying. Bullying is very destructive and can not only lead to suicide, but serious problems throughout life.

“The Mohats also claim that bullying was a ‘significant factor’ in the deaths of three other students in Eric Mohat’s class in 2007.”
“But days before the suicide, Eric Mohat told his mother, ‘I get picked on every day and I’ve got a whole nine weeks left. I can’t do this anymore.’”
Parents, you have the RIGHT to keep your children OUT of the schools. You can keep them home.
Obviously the schools will not protect your child. YOU have to.
“We don’t believe [bullying] it’s a problem,” says school representative. “We have a program of anti-bullying education to raise awareness for students about what constitutes bullying and differences among students.”
