    Wow, ppl really jump on you for expressing your opinion. How do kids ever learn to stand up for themselves or tell somebody when something wrong is going on. In grown up land - you don't have people to run to. I guess the answer is to just cry about it and not do anything to get help yourself. they should show the right thing that a kid does when they're being bullied. maybe people would learn something. Standing up doesn't mean a physical fight it means saying "Stop". If someone is going to kill themselves after being made fun of like I said, they have deeper problems that need professional help. It's a cruel world out there.

    You sound quite defensive...maybe you feel a little of what shane feels everyday.

    But you never addressed my question...What do you propose Jack do to stand up for himself?
    Do you think saying "Jack, stop it" will be sufficient? What would you do if you were Shane, to help him not be a victim anymore?

    I'M not saying it is right that Jack is buLLYING SHANE BUT YOU CAN SEE IF YOU TRY THERE IS MORE TO THIS .AND Todd wasn't a bully as a child Sam ,Todds son's name sake said Todd had been a very quiet shy child.He changed after he was raped and there was no one there for him,not even Sam .the man he wanted to be his father, but SAM DIDN'T KNOW TODD HAD COME LOOKING FOR HIM B/C THAT WITCH LINDSAY DIDN'T TELL HIM AND SHE TOLD TODD THAT SAM DIDN'T
    WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIM.SO TODD STARTED STANDING UP FOR HIMSELF,HE WAS 14.Since Andrew /Jack has a new contract maybe both Matt and Jack will go to juvie

    blesseddiva,

    there are anti-bullying laws not just in school, trust me where im from they are cracking down on the bullying and the ones who get punished is the ones video tapng the incidents also, so that's why i said if the school isn;t doing what it needs to do then the police are the next to step in, because the bullying is totally out of control.

    dcarter,

    everybody is entitled to their own opinion, i just don't like the fact that you kinda of said it was Shane's fault he is being bullied it's never a child's fault they are being bullied. and for him to change his clothes for maybe the bullying would stop, now that is the biggest problem with the world today why should someone change how the dress, walk, talk just to stop someone from teasing them, everybody is born to be themselves and if Shane likes the way he dresses, talks, walks, then why should he change for anybody. we as individuals can not change ourselves to fit the mold of what someone wants us to be that is why the world is so confused now, people live to please other's you got to learn to please yourself first. and nobody else.

    dcarter...most of the time the bullying starts with name calling by a group of kids and then everyone joins in. That leaves you with low self esteem. You feel completely alone and you know you cannot take on 5 or 10 people or even the whole school. No it is not his fault and no there is probably no underlying problesm. At the age of 14 or 15 and your naked body is on the internet by no choice of your own. When they pulled the towel from around him all were laughing. Shane felt like he could not face anyone again. Plus you think that if you tell your parents it will only make the bullying worse. That is why there is suicides among these young kids being bullied. They feel there is no way to turn and they are worthless. Shane feels like he cannot face anyone again. So please don't make excuses for the the people that are bullying.

    There was guy on tv not long ago who had always told his child he could always take up for himself. He also had taken Karate. But the bulling of him was so bad that his son committed suicide. The school was aware and so was the parents of the victim. But no one helped. I think all parents should talk to their children about bullying. You do not want them bullied and you do not want them to be the one bullying.

    True about Starr. YET you never saw her bullying anyone, did we?

    Posted by jumps at Thursday, March 31 2011 02:02 PM

    Hopefully now that Rex and Gigi know the truth, they will help Shane deal. But it is not going to be easy and it will take time. There is no magic wand.

    As for Jack and his little buddies, I see nothing that explains their bullying behavior. Just let the sl play out. But no matter what, they deserve to be PUNISHED for their actions.
    JMHO

    This is just MY opinion about what I would LOVE to see happen. That the rest of the school stands behind Shane and they shun Jack and his co-horts. They become the OUTCASTS!
