Ouch. thats one hardline opinion you got there.

SSRIs are well known in recent years to cause suicidal thoughts in teenagers within weeks after the start of treatment.

and since we are on ats... I'll mention that I look a little deeper into that curious side effect than most people. Upset stomach, maybe even internal bleeding... but suicidal thoughts? Sounds like biochemical warfare, but I digress...

See this is what i'm talkin about. A pretty@$$ white girl like that, kllin herself over some myspace is a ------- travisty. The girls cute, she got her whole life ahead of her, she's white so of course that's gonna help her get places..so why get all bent out of shape over what some 16 year old noob says to you OVER THE INTERNENT? My god, you would think after years people would have learned, IT'S THE ------- INTERNET, IT'S NOT THAT SERIOUS.
That's not "societys fault" that she couldn't relize what an idiot she was for throwing her life away for something as trivil as an e-mail. It's the people like those that make the real suicide victims look bad.
So yes it's offensive she would blatently disregard her life, but guess what..that's because her parents screwed up. Her parents should have been more involved in their daughters life. They are useless themselves, to let a child with that much potential, kill herself OVER ------- MYSPACE.
That shows a serious disconnection from the world. Obviously they made some mistakes along the way and didn't teach her how to put things in perspective. I'm sorry folks, but you have got to man up to lifes problems. I ain't saying i had it good, i ain't saying i had it bad..but one thing is for sure i would never think i was useless enough to jump out a window cause someone sent me a nasty text message.
Like i said, the fact her mom wants there to be a law against something that boiled down to their OWN familys neglect and stupidy..obviously speaks volumes about her obliviousness to reality. She has to understand that the world can not save you from yourself.
MEGANS PARENTS ARE THE ONES WHO TRULEY KILLED HER!
You have got to understand irresponsibility is like a crime to those of us who were taught to protect ourselves as children.

You really don’t see anything wrong with adults manipulating children online? What would be so bad about that law? Do you really have to be physically abusive in today’s world to damage children? As long as our only defense is laws, why don’t we make one?

yes I see something wrong, but nothing illegal. If anything, Megan broke the first rule by signing up to a site that clearly states you must be at least 18.
the mental "abuse" you are hinting at is laughable. If people cannot take criticism or a bad prank without resorting to suicide, there are more problems than the aforementioned "abuse."
