My Daughters best friend has a son who has been badly affected by a terrible tragedy that happened at his school yesterday. He is 10. A boy in the next grade was found by his teacher after she went looking for him when he didnât return from the bathroom. He had committed suicide with a knife and was already dead when his teacher found him. He was just 11. My God. What is happening to our children? Apparently he was being bullied. Please pray for his loved ones as they try and cope with this, his classmates and many others. Thank you.

So young. How are children this young being subjected to ideas of committing suicide??
I think it's all the subtle satanic crap everywhere. But that's just me.
I think youâre right. When I spoke to my Daughter, I said that when she was young, I wouldnât let her âstay overâ at a friends house until around 8yo. I remember she stayed over for the first time at one of my best friends homes. I knew this family, we did things together with âour girlsâ, but my friend indulged her daughter because from 6 weeks of age, she left her in the care of others and I was a stay at home Mum. She filled this childâs life with the latest videos, toys etc. My Daughter was in awe every time we visited. My daughter loved cats and wanted a kitten, but the timing was wrong as we were moving to an acreage and she would get her wish when we settled. This sleepover included the video âYoung Einsteinâ. It was an Aussie movie, but there was a part where this baker gathered up these beautiful kittens and put them in a pie, then put them in an oven and turned up the heat. The kittens were meowing louder and louder. This was a G rated movie. My daughter was so upset and for a long time would bring it up. Liberal parents these days forget that their children's mind are so precious. They worry about what food to give them, what clothes to impress their friends, but allow them to watch things that are way beyond what their minds can cope with. If the Bible teaches us Adults to guard our minds, then this must include our children too. I have no idea what the answering is to bullying and we did experience it with our children when they got older, but we were strict in their early years with friends and where they went etc. so they recognised it early and we discussed it as a family for solutions. But 11?? Itâs hit me hard as we have two beautiful granddaughters and Iâm very mindful of what they watch when over which is most days. Thank heavens we can âtake it to The Lord in prayerâ.
I donât think itâs actually very subtle anymore.
CRC and the Trans agenda may be a big factor.
