It was too late to delete the status because there were people commenting on the status which lead to a fight. I also asked her “why would one individual bully another?”She told me “I think when i see they are hurt, they may hate themselves,letting the world know that “i'm tough” and also trying to find themselves.” Another person I interviewed was Mrs. Hale, a counselor at Madison High School.
