Bullying Blues debilitating Depression

 The southeast Asian columnist downplayed the deleterious effect of bullying in school dismissing it as a natural riot of passage that will help so-called victims of bullying stand up and fight for themselves rather than cowering or seeking safe spaces or crying to their parents.

I would ask this writer who also was bullied in school to understand the feeling of the parents and siblings of Sadie L. Riggs who hung herself in Bedford, Pennsylvania. Also ask Pastor Wayne Mcgruder  how difficult it is to officiate a funeral for one so young who thought there was no way out of melancholic dark abyss. 

Antonio Contreras through his intelligence, verbal skills, overall adaptability and parents who were talented educators transformed being bullied into a storied career as a writer and motivational speaker, BUT Sadie's family was was much more splintered than the typical Pinoy Family.
