I've been recently overwhelmed by the teenage bullying thing going on, i dont know if any of yall know about it, but anyway, i also know some of yall , if not all of yall have children, well i wanted to post some videos for everyone to see the big problem, but swingtowns wouldnt alow it cuz it deals with children, i understand that this is a site for adults, but just wanted to pass it thru here, even if this is a sex site, we are still regular people and have our normal regular lives,which mostly deals with chidren, so, anyway, im telling this to be apart of the movement,
all you have to do is look up on youtube or whereever else about teenage suicide and bulling, I actually had a brother shot himself at age 17,anyway, this is not about me, i was just you tube surfing and came upon all these children who have had problems , some made it, some are making it right now, and then some fell right it and passed away, i looked up this little girl, which turned out to be a bunch of girls and boys telling there story or telling how important it is to be positive and keep strong and this one was telling the 10 reasons you should smile, thats where i found all this (10 reasons to smile) its beautiful children who are, or may have had hard times and they are trying push forward, its amazing and very touching, well anyway, it made me smile a whole lot. suicide can also run upon adults so i would like to spread the word,with what happened to my brother and also, i to was a survior myself and made it so i wish that for all . plez spread the message or look it up or jus open your eyes to some who have young chidren, school is a place to learn , not a place to wanna die, and a home is a place to live comfortable with family, not a place to die to. i love yall , i pray for all, if we spread the word or talk , i believe one by one we can make a difference, i know i sound like a commercial, but nope its not. so please look up the chidrens videos make comments for them, let them see that we all love and to hang on, i cant post there videos but here is one from ELLEN, explaining a little. and thank yall for letting me post this, and remember to smile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The statistics are devastating on bullying, and in turn leads to some taking their lives because they do not see any other way out. My philosophy has always been, if my instincts tell me that this person is troubled...ask them. There is always a way to approach even on the most touchiest topics... it is better to ask than let it go under the rug.
I tell you, my boys had ONE experience with a person bullying and enticing them to do things they knew they shouldn't, it lasted one week cuz as soon as I seen it I got the police AND the school involved. Told the school if they were not going to take care of this issue I was going to personally escort my own kids from the school bus and into the school. Needless to say, they did put more teachers on bus duty! My boys now reflect back and ask me how I knew... I just tell them I knew them enough to see the signs.
Anyways...enough of my ramble. Great post Keri!

I have also see a rise in teenage suicides, due to 'bullying'! We hear it on the news! I know my daughters were bullied when they were in school at one point. I think we all have been bullied at some time in our lives! I also think technology of internet, cell phones, ipads have made this easier for those that 'bully' others!! The 'web' is a powerful tool!! Whether it is used to the good or bad! What I've always told my kids is, people that like to 'bully' others are just trying to make themselves look 'better'!!! And in reality, they are no more than just LOSERS!!! Teenagers are VERY impressionable!! 'Gotta wear the RIGHT clothes', talk to the 'RIGHT' people, ect..... High School does have 'cliques'! As parents, we need to talk to our kids & be more involved in their lives. That's my 2 cents!! Just my thoughts....xoxo Shirley

oh yeh girl , the part about the internets, yeh we have a girl, a high school girl from a different high school then my girls go to, k she got taped doing something bad with herboyfriend rite, where the heck ya think it went first?????????????? Tw*****r, F***B**K, INSTA**AM, and then hit Y*O T**E, now i like Y** T**E, cuz some things have good or funny or powerful messages, but yeh they dogged that poor girl for like 2 straight months, and its still on there, things just passed a bit but her name, its ruined, her lfe totally changed, its sad, now see what happen to me was i was only nine yrs old when my brother did it, he was 17, we dont even till this day know why, he wasnot gay, he deffently was not bulled , if anything he might have done some bullying , we dont really know it was in 1984, so thats a while back,.......now today its soooooo freaking bad man and i strongly believe it needs more attention bad, if i had the money, id open a place around here for counsling, we have a few but they ant worth shit, and me, im a survivor , i went thru a trauma, plus his death hit me later in life and i lost it, it actually took, yall and im not lieing, i dont lie i wont lie, but i went to jail on the count of it, no further comments on how or what, but yeh i hit rock freaking bottom, scared my own self just to get out of the thought, so i wanna speak soooooo bad man , if i could just save one, if only one, but i love to save them all , but i know thats not possible, but maybe from passing it so much , and going friend to friend , neighbor to neighbor we can each help prevent it or get them past it, cuz it will pass but you gotta want it to pass and im sorry to get religon thrown in this, but the only reason im sitting here today typeing to yall, cutting up with yall, is bacause of God. thanks shirley, yes like you said at the end WE NEED TO TALK!!!!!!! i love you guys thanks
