What town so I avoid it! (I'm from upstae, NY actually) I would think that the school authorities need to look at the bullying aspect. I went through that crap my freshman year and at that age, it can be devastating to the ego. I'd have just as soon capped the whole lot whwere I went to school but I had self control also. My particular Hell was a small town in Northeast Ohio. I will refrain from naming it as that was a long time ago and i don't care to offend anyone Today. Unfortunately after the bullying and the parental split it was too much for the poor girl. my heart goes out to her family in their time of sorrow. neil
