Just wanted to get peoples opinions on this, if they've heard about it.

I'm really struggling with where I sit on this one, I believe the bullying was pretty fucked up, it's not okay that they went to the extent they did, following her round and causing her life to be absolutely terrible.

But I also partly feel had someone guided her/taught her/been a good parent to teach her that the internet is a fucked up place and showing your tits (at whatever age) is not a smart thing to do as it will most likely be spread around.

People say that I'm 'victim blaming' and I don't feel that I'm saying it's entirely her fault, it isn't, but had she not done it, she'd potentially saved herself from a lot of problems, obviously at 12/13 you can be pressured easily into doing things, but it should be common knowledge showing your tits/dick/getting naked online is just asking for trouble.

So cadred, thoughts?
