As you can see things are getting way out of hand, we were not brought on this earth to judge one another but to help and love each other even with our flaws. The saddest part is that they are so young and didnt get to enjoy life the right way. Schools are suppose to promote diversity within skin color, religion, sexuality etc. If the schools arent doing their jobs how are they suppose to feel safe? Who is on their side when they are away from home? What if it was your brother or sister? Come on, this has to stop.
