So, so sad.

I’ve posted a lot about bullying recently, this case is so horrific. it would seem there was no let up for Ana with peers continuously harassing, intimidating, excluding, isolating and ultimately murdering her.

Bullying is a serious problem and needs to be vigorously addressed by schools, colleges and workplaces now.

bullying has no age limit, in a recent report researchers stated over 70% of young people admitted to being bullied! This is unacceptable

Rest peacefully, Ana 🙏🏻💕

During the trial, details emerged of the bullying and harassment that young Ana was subjected to prior to her horrific death

Back to the horrific topic of the moment.....bullying

There’s a self reflective piece in this article from someone who was mean to a “friend” that shows the lengths some people will go to be knowingly hurtful to another person.

Imagine the research quotes 70% of young people admitting to having been bullied.....this is unacceptable.

When we live at a time of significant change and “acceptance” how has bullying behaviour both on the part of the bully and the witnesses/observers apparently slipped through the cracks?

Time to make this “behaviour” socially and politically unacceptable

This is NOT OK.
