The uglier side of bullying

August 16th, 2007 Posted in Society, Winnipeg

I came across this news on the newspaper while I was on my break at work, and the first thing I said was, “WTH is wrong here?”

A six-year-old Pauingassi boy drowned as a result of bullying from his peers, RCMP confirmed Saturday.

Six-year-old Adam Keeper died after he disappeared early Tuesday evening, and a community-organized search found his body hours later near the banks of Fishing Lake.

Sgt. Steve Colwell said three boys — ages seven, eight and nine — stripped Keeper naked and pushed him into the lake. [Link]

Bullying is just an ugly sight, but upon hearing this news, I come to detest this subject even more. I just cannot imagine how the kids involve were able to commit such act.
