My heart breaks for the family of Hugo Morales. How do we prevent something like this from happening again? Is there a policy in place for all the county schools to follow when bullying takes place?
Back in the dark ages (1970's) in NJ where I grew up there were the occasional bullies, but they were not tolerated. They were given after school detention. If they kept at it, they could be sent to a "reform school" for the remainder of the school year. I think we need to bring back those reform schools. Do a three strikes - your out policy.
No child should have to be so bullied by their peers that they take their own lives!
