I won't go into all the details of what was said but one student said if she reports her that she would kill her. Another one said she was so ugly that nobody will ever love her so she better kill herself now. This has been going on since last school year but she was too afraid to tell anyone until now.
These type threats are against the law, they have been reported to the principle, and the police. The police are going to get a warrant to have the internet provider turn over all records of thie IP addresses these messages have been coming from.
This crap needs to be stopped. I am so pissed off right now, I am afraid of what her dad might do when he finds out who is behind this.

Talk to your kids and let them know that nobody should be allowed to bully someone on the Internet or through text messaging. It's against the law in many places and they are cracking down on it. If your child is being Bullyed they need to know they can report it. If your child is bullying someone then they need to know they can get in a lot of trouble if and when they are caught.

I totally agree please report it and too many kids are doing the unthinkable and being a bully is so terrible. Kids are vulerable enough and impressionable as it is without some horrible kids telling them hurtful things. I pray everything works out for the best for your grandchild. Makes me angry to keep hearing this over and over and kids taking their lives because they just can't take it anymore. Soo SAD!!!
