Ashlynn Conner, a pretty ‘All-American’ girl, was driven to suicide by bullies at just 10 years old.
The day before she died, Ashlynn came home in tears.
Kids had bullied Ashlynn for years, calling her a “slut,” “fat,” and “ugly,” so that day’s incident seemed relatively minor to [her mother] Stacy: The girls had poked fun at Ashlynn’s initials, “A.C.,” saying it sounded like “air conditioner.”
Three different teachers at the school had told Ashlynn to “stop tattling” after she reached out for help, the girl told her mother. It was the Thursday before Veterans Day, and Stacy told Ashlynn she should go straight to the principal the following Monday if the bullying continued.
“But she didn’t want to wait until Monday,” Stacy told The Daily.
Ashlynn’s older sister found her hanging by her neck from a scarf in a bedroom closet on Friday night. She was pronounced dead before 9 p.m. at a local hospital, another inconceivably young victim of elementary school bullying.
It starts so fucking early and teachers at the elementary school level don’t seem to have a clue how serious it is. I had a similar experience from kindergarten to eighth grade (so pretty much only when I switched to an arts high school that at the time did not have bullying problems). I was pretty much told not to cry, not to let it get to me, not to “tattle”, not to feel anything, etc. for that nine year period of my life and I was miserable, but told not to show it like that was going to mak it go away.
This is just…. really frustrating and hits way too close to home.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_luplo5eNU91qf5y35o1_500.jpg)

RIP WANG YUE
October 14th 2 year old toddler Wang Yue walks out of her parents shop and crosses the road. She doesn’t realise a van approaching her. The van is driving at a moderate speed but when the van draws closer to the girl, it doesn’t stop but drives right over her. As the front wheel runs over her body the driver realises that he had run over the girl. After a moment of hesitation, the driver continues, crushing the girl with the back wheel as well. Yue Yue is left on the streets bleeding, at this stage she is still alive and moving. 3 pedestrians walk past her but yet no one is willing to stop to help the poor little girl. Another van drives past and runs over her body the second time. 18 pedestrians walk past her but still, no one helps her. Finally a women picking up trash sees her and drags her to the side of the road. She calls for help and the girls mother runs out. Yue Yue is finally rescued after 10 minutes and 18 witnesses.
Wang Yue died in hospital today (21st of October) due to organ failure. The drivers of the vans have been arrested but both claim that it was dark and they couldn’t see where they were going although both of their headlights had been turned off. If one of the 3 first witnesses had a heart to just even call the ambulance, Wang Yue probably wouldn’t be where she is now. It makes me wonder where people’s hearts are these days. If you saw a toddler bleeding to death on the middle of the road would you just pretended like you saw nothing?
Rest in Peace beautiful Wang Yue. You only had 2 years in this world before your life was taken away from you. I hope that where you are now is way better than this messed up society that we live in. I hope that this tragedy will be a wakeup call for those heartless people out there. Us humanity needs to start caring for each other again. This incident should never be forgotten. Wang Yue exposed us to the sad reality of the 21st century and we need to learn from this. Sweetheart, you’ll forever be in our hearts
Reblog this if you still have a heart. Reblog this if you care for Wang Yue and is as shocked about this story as I am.
