    Sad really, Maritess was bullied at school because of her white skin and her Nystagmus, then when I came into her life and took her to Cebu for an operation on her eyes, all her ex schoolmates became jealous and as for Maritess it changed her Null point and improved her life. (Go to website Nystagmus Network and you will understand more)

    Wow..Money and power and what it can achieve eh!
    Although I would like to hear the school`s position, I`m also pretty sure that such a sad student death in a local public school would merit a Senate hearing!!!!!
    A "Disgrace" to the British community? I think I`ll reserve judgement on that till further notice.
    RIP.

    ... tragic ... ... whatever caused this to happen - and/or whichever way you look at it. In my opinion there's never an excuse for bullying!

    No disgrace to the british community,an 18 year old guy who'se relationship with his parents was'nt so good that he can discuss problems with them or the parents pick up the vibes that something was wrong.



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    That is a possibility,but who really knows what goes through a kids head to make him/her do that to themselves?
    Not always black and white.
    I wonder though why the Brit teacher made a quick exit back to the U.K?? Threatened by family or did they do or say something questionable? He/she needs to speak up.
    Perhaps the school head knows why or perhaps he does not and is busy trying to find out before commenting?

    On second thoughts,perhaps the teacher was warned to get the hell out of dodge or become a scapegoat.

    Very sad. R.I.P

    I was bullied by a teacher at school because of the football team I supported. Some of these teachers can be so pathetic.
