I am from the UK too GE ;)
Draculina you are relating to this case as your first post said:
“A healthy person would just block the number and carry on with their life.”
That was why I and others highlighted the real abuse, this was not social media, not even sure why social media got brought into it as the documentary does mention it either,…[Read more]

Exactly Jane, Draculina talks like this was a social media incident:
Punched in the stomach,
Called horrible names,
Trash thrown at him,
Made to lick a bus window,
Jumped going to the bus,
Ridiculed over and over,
And that was only what the mother said, it was probably ten-fold…And finally, at his lowest point, taunted by his bully to use his…[Read more]

No, the horse and rider work as a team.

Drac… It isn’t easy for some not to care what others think, especially when its your peers that you are surrounded with. The whole point about bullying is that the bullies prey on those they perceive as weaker and when it is persistent it can be very difficult to ignore.
That poor lad was so desperately psychologically beaten he felt death was…[Read more]

The issues are beyond just what people said to him, the documentary explains it, it was physical too, but you will have a random explanation for that too… To be honest, at the end of the day, no bully = no death, no matter what you say… If that kid was left alone to live his life he would be alive today no matter what way you like to twist…[Read more]

No, the horse responds to specific aids given by the rider, it responds to shifts of weight and physical touches, although I concede it is possible to train them to perform riderless. Still requires skill from the trainer.

Sorry to interrupt but can I just point out that the horse doesn’t do all the work. There is a lot of skill and training involved on the riders part. The horse “performs” if you like but it requires years of training and dedication.

Drac… It isn’t as simple as just blocking the number. He saw these people every day, the bullying was relentless.
Your comment that he was probably mentally ill is kinda silly, are you saying only mentally ill people commit suicide? Even if he was mentally ill, it is still a tragic example of just how deeply being bullied can affect…[Read more]

Not really Draculina as it’s an even playing field or should be… For example in the Champions League let’s say a team from Romania progresses past the group stages, they get paid the same amount as say Barcelona for progressing. UEFA don’t start getting into politics about how Barcelona are superior and should get more. Wimbledon could do the…[Read more]

Draculina I don’t think you can simply put it down to “a healthy person would have blocked the number and carried on with life”. You are talking about someone who has to attend school with this person, knows everyone they hang with, see’s them in a mall etc, you make it sound so easy… And so what if he was disturbed, that still made it ok for…[Read more]

Nicely said Linda :), how I feel too, at times when younger I was a tearaway, but now I think, I will do anything for them, whenever they ask me something, or a favour, why not, I hope my parents have a long time left, but I don’t want them to die and for me to then think why didn’t I do more, why did I not do better, I hope I don’t have that…[Read more]

How do you know they are not paid equal or more, for example Serena Williams through sponsorship will dwarf any payments male players outwith the seeded top 10 get. I do agree though, prize money should be equal regardless of the amount of sets they have to play… We should all be equal…
