  1. I wonder why there were painkillers that strong just setting around their house. The girl could have done a lot to change the outcome.

  2. I think you have to be really hurt by what people are saying to you to want to seriously hurt yourself.

  3. There shouldn't of been painkillers just laying around where she could get them anytime she wanted to. Her parents should of hit them in a better spot.

  4. That was kind of stupid of the girl to take the pain killers. The right thing to do would have been to tell her parents. If her parents took care of it, the bullying would most likely stop.

  6. She must have been really stupid or somethin. She could have just asked for help and it would have gone a lot better.

  7. Thats sad when you bully somebody until they want to over dose on drugs. maybe she didn't mean to over dose and she just didn't know how much she could contain, but she was still trying to get messed up and forget about everything that was going on.
