Yet ANOTHER 13 Year Old Dies Because Of "Gay" Bullying In School!!

Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is just beyond tragic!

News has just surfaced that a 3rd teenage boy in as many weeks has died after a suicide attempt because of bullying in school over his supposed sexuality.

Seth Walsh, 13, from Tehachapi, CA, attempted suicide on September 19th by hanging himself and was hospitalized in critical condition until this week.

Sadly, Seth died on Monday.

A memorial service is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 1, at 3:30 p.m. at the Tehachapi First Baptist Church, 1049 South Curry St., Tehachapi.

I sincerely hope that this teen's story will force others to stop and think before they put someone else down for something as petty as sexual preference. NOBODY should feel less worthwhile than ANYONE ELSE, especially over that.

PLEASE please PLEASE, if you have a little brother or cousin or neighbor or anyone whom you think might be gay or might be perceived as gay, talk to them! Encourage open and honest communication. Talk to them about suicide and how that is NOT the answer.

It is really hard to see at 13, but things WILL get better for them.

Suicide is NOT the answer!!!!

If you or anyone you know is currently having suicidal thoughts, please seek help! Check out The Trevor Project for more information.

These suicides MUST stop!!!!
