Posted Katy Holder in part, ‘This tragedy is also a heartbreaking reminder of how serious bullying is. Actions and words matter. The things kids say and do especially online matter more than we sometimes realize. Bullying can leave deep scars that aren’t always visible.
‘Please talk to your kids. Talk to them about kindness. Talk to them about inclusion.
Talk to them about standing up for others. Talk to them about using their voice to build people up instead of tearing them down. We have to do better for our children. We have to create spaces where they feel safe, valued, and loved.’
