Terrible, terrible. We had a suicide like this in Calgary when I was in grade 6. If I remember correctly, the kid was in grade 5 and he had a least 3 hospital visits due to the bullies. He'd transfered schools, but the damage had been done: he ate his dad's gun.

I have to agree with Hunter and Cerek, though. Busting a lip might not be the nicest thing to do, but it's what you have to. Submission is the worst, and ratting them to teachers, while the encouraged "solution" isn't far behind, there is still a playground sense of honor.

Overall, just sad.
