An American child committed suicide after being subjected to severe bullying for months, in the latest evidence showing the seriousness of this phenomenon spread in schools around the world.
The family of the child, Nate Bronstein, 15, says that her son could have survived, if the school principal in Chicago had taken deterrent measures against the bullies.
Therefore, the family wants the school principal to be removed from his new position, due to his failure to prevent tragedy and discipline the bullies, the New York Post reported.
Mother Roslyn said she has filed a lawsuit against the school and its former principal, seeking $100 million in damages.
She explained in the lawsuit that the school and the principal ignored the suffering of her late son for months, as he was subjected to merciless bullying.
And the child hanged himself last January, after months of bullying by his colleagues, and it partly began, as the parents say, by spreading lies among the school drum that Nate had not taken the anti-Corona vaccine.
Then Nate’s classmates started teasing him with frequent questions about vaccination, and if his parents were anti-vaccination
The mother says that she contacted the school administration to put an end to this bullying, but there was no improvement, and things got worse, as a teacher in the school spoke harsh words to him in front of the students in the classroom.
The strange thing in this story is that it took place in a prestigious school in the American city of Chicago.
After leaving school in Chicago, the principal moved to New York, where he would run a prestigious school.
“I warn all parents,” says the mother. “This will happen again (bullying and suicide). Their children will not be protected in that school under this principal.”
She added that the director does not care about the students, but only cares about his interests.
