Wow...
I dont think this girl (who you dont know) would want you calling attention to her situation and defending her without her knowledge.
Maybe she's in on it... MAYBE she doesn't care... you dont know. Yet, ur crying and reporting to the Facebook staff because your overly sensitive and dont like what you see.
mind you own business, and get your head out of your own @ss. What a lame excuse to make a thread.
lahoo-zehure

Yes, people are learning from this. That's fine.
But what about the girl? Just sacrifice her dignity because she might get famous?
I know trials strengthen us. I hope she can deal with this and overcome it. But what if it does severe psychological trauma? Teenagers are so vulnerable. They are dealing with the transition from childhood to adulthood. That's difficult enough without being humiliated on a global website.

You're not worth reporting. And you've occupied way to much of my attention. So goodbye.

There are a plethora of case studies that show bullying can have long term negative consequences, especially when it occurs in the teenage years. Teenagers practically live in their limbic system, the area of the brain that deals with emotion. A person who's in their limbic system has difficulty accessing the frontal lobe of the brain, which is where rational thought, meta cognition, and other skills develop. Since some teenagers have highly sensitized limbic systems, it can be very hard for them to think coherently when something traumatic occurs, they often have difficulty thinking rationally at that moment. If the trauma is severe enough, the person may do something that harms themselves or others simply because they act impulsively.
