Sexting Tragedy

We just read an article about a girl, Jessica Logan, who committed suicide after being unable to stand against people's bullying and harrassment. Her boyfriend sent out to all of his friends a naked photo of her, which lead to this well known tragedy. After the photo was spread all over her friends, school mates and even other school districts, she decided to put an end to her life. Her parents, instead of suing the people who were responsible for this situation, they sued the school arguing that they didn't do enough to stop the bullying and the harrasment. It is really sad to hear that a young and pretty girl commited suicide, but I think Jessica is the responsible for all of this after deciding to send her boyfriend the photo. I couldn't understand why she would it and why she didn't think of the consequences after a possible break up.

Jessica's parents have decided to take legal action against her school. I totally understand that they are desperate, sad and dissapointed for what just happened, but trying to sue the school is not going to work. Instead of just going against anyone, they should calmly think of the situation and then sue the people that were in a way, responsible for the situation. The school, in this case, has nothing to do with it. From what we read in the article, they did what they could but they couldn´t really get involved in this issue. It was alright to tell students to stop and to give counselling but they couldn´t expell the people that were involved because then they would have to expell every single kid. If they were actually expelled then they would even bully more and more. Also, things were spread outside school and outside the district, which was totally out of reach for Jessica´s high school. The school did everything that they could do, so they shouldn´t worry about it. The responsibility first started with Jessica and then with her parents, who should have acted quicker after seing the terrible situation that their daughter was going through.
