Amanda Todd

I'd heard of Amanda Todd before, but I never really knew her story. I am on the verge of tears. I want nothing more than to give her a hug.
But along with this desperate compassion, I'm so angry. There is a burning rage at the people that made this girl, this poor girl, take her own life. I saw the teens react for it as well. People don't understand when they say "tell your parents, it WILL help" or "It DOES get better". It probably will help, it probably will get better. But I don't feel comfortable talking about my life with anyone, and even if it does get better, its the here and now I am concerned about.
I can't think about this story any more, because I probably will cry. I haven't cried since I was about 12. This really puts things into perspective.
