Bullying: Why We Need to Reach Out to Kids in Doubt

This is an article I wrote for class recently. It had to be based on a world issue, and I feel very strongly about bullying so I picked it to write about. Before I finished the article, I found out about the death of a girl in Victoria by the name of Olivia Penpraze. Her story touched me and I felt terrible for both her and her parents. She had committed suicide because of cyber-bullying, so I decided to add her story to my article. I didn't know her, but she was a beautiful girl (her pictures are in the news articles online) and she didn't deserve to die. R.I.P Olivia and all other young people who have lost their lives to bullying.
