Please give your thoughts on this...
It is so sad to say the least and also unnecessary!!
I'm interested to see what people think of this!
Thanks in advance...

Thats just wrong! I cant believe it. An adult made up a fake person to spy on this girl {so to speak}. The girl took it seriously. I really hope someone gets punished for this. It has torn a family apart! Over a silly game. Makes me sick!

Hi heavenschild,
Thank you for posting this here. I was 'so shocked and sickened,' after reading this article. To realize that there were adults involved in 'this crime,' is heartbreaking to me. I don't understand what 'this mom' thought she'd gain, by inventing this 'fake guy,' and participating in this cruelty.
She 'supposedly' did this to monitor what this girl was saying about her daughter ... give me a break! The authorities are going to have to start responding to the absolute evil that takes place online. There need to be laws in place, so that these types of activities 'are viewed as crimes,' and the ones responsible are charged.
My heart goes out to this family, that is now torn apart because of this terrible situation, resulting in the loss of their daughter. I was reduced to tears, when I read that her dad had told her that "everything would be alright," and her mom had felt uneasy about leaving her, to take the other child to an appointment. I'm sure they never imagined that they'd find their daughter like this.
I pray those responsible are consumed with guilt, and that they realize that they're to blame for this. I also hope that they can be 'somehow' prosecuted for what they've done.
Sorry to go on here, but this really makes me sick, and angry at this terrible injustice.

I'm very sorry to hear about your son's illness.:(
I couldn't agree more with you here. I'd love to hear a follow-up on this, and that there's been some justice for this 'poor family.'

Sorry that I did not get back to you sooner Mom but my son has been sick since Friday...He seems tobe coming out of it now that he is on Antibiotics but that is another story...
All that aside I want to thank you for your heartfelt response here and you never have to appologize for going on as I always value your input into mine and others discussions here! :)
It is sickening and unbelievable to think that parents of this girls class mate could do this!!!!
They are murderers in my eyes and I too hope that justice is served and they are brought into a court and made to pay for what they have done!!! there is no excuse for this!!! Monitoring what she said to her own daughter.....That is a most rediculous excuse if I ever one!!!
Thanks again Mom and have a great day!!!
