In what way?

So many kids are exposed to the internet, watersheds seem none existent and we expect kids to just get on with it. When you’ve got kids accessing WhatsApp groups at 9 or 10 years old , online bullying, adults behaving dismally online themselves, even supposedly respectable ones . Being a kid these days must be a mental nightmare . There’s something to be valued in blissful ignorance

Agree with this here like. Most kids these days don't have a childhood.

Fecking awful, cant stop thinking about it. One of my bairns teachers found him.

Think if it was one of mine Id follow suit.

How can you be in that state so young.

Don’t want too much information but do you know if the lads from hart village?

This bullying doesn't stop when school ends now.

very sad and a waste of a young life.

Horrendous news. Desperately sad that this lad got to a place where he felt this was his only option.

A mate of mine had his young lad commit suicide not long ago. 13 too. Jumped off the bridge in Bishop. How you cope with a loss like that is beyond me. Heartbreaking.

Absolutely tragic
RIP to the young lad

 

[Panhead]

Gonna go out on a limb and say at 13 it's likely to be bullying related.

Such a sad horrible waste of life

Yeh I think it’s the first thing that springs to mind for most, I know I’m an old fart but the constant barrage of social media can’t be good for kids, absolutely no downtime away from anything or anyone.

If that is the case they should scan his social media accounts and name and shame anyone who's been having a go at him.

Never mind how old (or young) they are - they need to know that their actions have consequences.

 

[Motor City Cobra]

Such a tragedy at such a young age, but without knowing the full story the poor lad might have had an awful home life with being on lockdown, so wouldn't be to quick to feel for the parents so much just yet...
RIP young man.

Wtf. What an awfully cynical outlook you must have. Awful.

 

[The soap powder]

Shocking news RIP and thoughts to the family who must be devastated

 

[xmfd]

The older I get (29 now) the more I think that I might not want to have kids. The world is fucked now compared to when I was growing up just 20 years ago.

If kids are able to access all of that then the parents are dropping the ball.

This shit going on at the moment is tantamount to child abuse for anyone in their formative years.

How so?

 

[T_Bone]

Sorry to hear this terrible news. He’s obviously from my town. Doesn’t matter where he’s from. My heart goes out to his family, especially his Mam and Dad.

Social media pressures?
f***ing hate it me.
