Bullying can lead a child to thinking that suicide is the answer. When kids are constantly
hearing they are not worth it, they don’t matter, the world would be better if they were not
here, it leads them to belive those words. However Suicide is not only caused by bullying it
can also be caused by emotion problems, exposure to violence, family conflict, alcho=lorhol
and drug use, or the lack of support for them in their home. Far too often do children feel like
they are not allowed to express their feelings with their parents in the home.
