Another stabbing of a teenage girl who finished with her boyfriend.
He was jealous, couldn't handle it and stabbed her to death and injured someone trying to protect her?

Why don't they get help for their anger?
Why can't boys/men just accept you don't want to see them anymore?
I would never have dreamt as a teenage girl I would be stabbed.
A relationship ended, it was painful, but you moved on.
Do you worry about your teenage daughters and relationships now.
I don't have a teen daughter but I'm sure I would worry.

This happened in my region, he'd already been warned off and told to leave her alone. He stabbed her over 30 times and only stopped because he broke the knife in her. I can scarcely believe such jealous rage in a 16 year old.

Poor girl.

Makes you wonder, no parental guidance, no help offered for his anger etc no seeking help.

I think violence amongst all sections of society is becoming more and more common. People just can’t seem to control their tempers and don’t seem to give a shit about the consequences. It’s very scary. Women and girls seem to be getting the brunt of it in particular with male aggression increasing.

That's what it's all about at the end of the day controlling temper and anger.
People seem.unwilling or unable to walk away from anything. They would have a more peaceful life if they did.

That must be worth a study on why it's more so these days that people can't control themselves.
