I couldn't agree more Livia. I fear for my childrens children. Social Media is destructive in so many ways. I was listening to the radio the other day where a school wanted to ban phones as children were filming other children getting bullied in the playground and then posting it up on Social Media...but then you get parents up in arms because their children 'need' their phones for personal safety ...You go out and see children in a Restaurant on their phones whilst the Adults talk....The hideous stuff you can see on SM is just vile.
I mean I feel sorry for this guy of course...but to film his own suicide for others to see is equally damaging and distressing for those that will be able to see it.
