I taught this young girl; her mum worked in my classroom - now the young girl is dead :(

[Hulababy]

Saw this ont he news last night: here

I taught her over the last couple of years. Her mum works as an LSA at the school I have just left. She used to work with some of my lower ability classes, such a lovely woman. Feel so sad for her and her family. They'd been so excited about doing the TV series, and now the young girl is dead. Police says not suscipious - so what happened to her? She was a happy, healthy 17yo from what I hear. Feel really saddened

This is the fourth pupil I have known to die in my years of teaching, and every time it feels so horrible. Life isn't fair.

thats really sad

Apparantly it may be suicide Such a waste of a young life.

thats awful,

I know. Just seems so tragic. The other children's deaths I have known from teaching have been either accident (hit by car) or illness (pneumonia and menengitus).

Can't get the link to work.

try this

Sorry

How sad.

in the telgraph it says that she had confessed she was a lesbian and had been getting involved in internet chatrooms, soi possibly that had something to do with it

it does seem like suicide as no supicious circumstances

I'm very sorry Hulababy - you must feel terribly shaken. It is very tragic.

Sorry Hula. Yet another sad story..the world is really a strange place!

How awful Hula .

How sad Hula. I got an e-mail from dd's former CSA in Rochdale last week telling me who had died (3 kids) at the school (where I also worked as a dinner lady). It makes you think, doesn't it.

And makes you appreciate what you've got!

How very sad Hula - life is so unfair sometimes.

What a terrible waste, so sad.

Poor little love.

I hate the idea that anyone has to 'confess' to being a lesbian - it isn't a crime.

Thanks all. It is obviously front page of all the local papers here, so their pictures are on show in all the shops/newstands. Her mum is such a lovely, hard working person - they must be devasted

I (sort of ) know how you feelHula, one of my pupils died a few years ago, although she was quite disabled and seemed to just drift away in her sleep, she was only 9. I know how dreadful I felt when this happened so can only imagine how it must be when the end is somewhat more complex. Thoughts are with yourself and her family.

I know Blu. You'd think nowadays that thinking you might be gay was not the hateful taboo it once was. She looked a lovely girl - the sort anyone would be proud to be a parent to. It must have been a horrid shock Hula

I just feel so much for her poor mum. Her mum worked in my class as an LSA. She is so lovely. She must be devasted
