Ten years old. Ten. Years. Old. There's no way that school had no idea. That child didn't deserve ANY of that. Another child forgotten by the school system. Absolutely unbelievable.
This isn't ok I have a she's now 14 and a long time ago she was bullied and my parents went to the school and they did something they expelled him for good now my sister is happy that it was over and I thank Ms. Willis at East Fallowfield elementary School at coatesville
I too was bullied. But had no support to turn to. Was unheard of 71 years back. I had to get tuff and I did. It’s terrible sad this happens so often. And yes, schools turn deaf ears on anymore. Don’t want to hurt the “good kids” or their families. Makes me sick.
I am the same age and getting bullied as a child and teen still bothers me. I sometimes have nightmares about it. Bullying is a very serious issue that needs to be given the strongest attention possible.
That school board who ignored his cry for help needs to be fired and the kids who bullied him along with the parents need to be dealt with 😠 totally unacceptable! So sorry for your loss.
They only cared about test scores so they can get more money for themselves they don’t care about the kids. So sad Sammy had to go through this and tragic what happened to him.
I fought for a year with my daughter's then school. Once she got to a point that she was having nightmares, i filed a police report. They came got the neighborhood cop laison involved. The school wanted to say thay they were doing their "best". The cops and the neighborhood laison got cps involved. The parents of the abuser were upsét that i involved the cops. School didnt care. I contacted the director and said my daughter's switching schóols. Within five days she started at a new school. It was night and day. Therapy, and a school with wn actual no bullying policy saved my daughter's life. Cps is still involved in the lives of the other family six years later. Go figure if i was right. I'm so lucky our kid wàs saved in time.
@@ochvazquez-eq2qw Well, even strong people fall. You may be strong physically, but mental health is much more important. Don't blame his parents. They did the best they could do, and now their son is in a better place.
This is what happens in a society where there is no consequence for bad behavior. When bullying is going on in school, parents should be teaming up against the bullies and even getting them expelled from school. There is no reason the child should be left bullied and no consequences to the bullies.
Back in the day my dad got into a fight with a bullies and he didn't know a teacher was behind him, he beat up the teacher, his dad brought him to school the next day and told the school that the other kid was a bullies and they knew it too, and he said that his son is going to school
"No child left behind" started this. And that's when the price school system just started pushing the kids on through even if they failed just to make them look good after the kid received diploma/ a piece of paper without even knowing how to read beyond a 5th grade level. When I was growing up bullies/ bad kids were EXPELLED from going to public school. Either the parents had to send them to alternative schools for behavior or pay for private or just home school.
Parents please remember No One will protect your child from bullies except for you, take it serious once your child tells you about it. God bless this family ❤
I was severely bullied from 1st grade all the way through 12th. I almost didn't make it. People need to take bullying more seriously, especially the schools. I'm so grateful I did. Sending my love and prayers to that family ❤
I was bullied from the time I was in school until I quit in the end of grade 10. I was suicidal because of the bullying. And the 2 years of high school it was also on the hour bus ride there and back which made it worse. I'm so sorry this poor boy didn't make it. My heart breaks for the family.
Why didn't the parents stand for their son? Why didn't they find the principle or transfer the son to another school? i am so sorry to hear that, the parent could have reacted sooner to save their son.
sorry for your loss 😢💔 Those bullies should of been charged with assault. I wish the poor kid realized that bullying isn't the end of the world and it was possible to move on and heal
If he chose to breed him, he CHOSE to make that possible for his own personal PLEASURE of being a breeder, when he CHOSE to breed. Just one reason of thousands why breeding is so selfish and cruel.
My mama heart breaks for them. I just list my son to suicide in September, he was 22. I don't think my mind has accepted the fact that he is gone. But to have a 10 year old child die from suicide, is beyond. I am so, so sorry. Something needs to be done with bullying.
Does it really!? Have you not had your eyes open? This country has NO MORALITY!!!! It will get worse. This country elected the nastiest bully in the world!!!
My son was bullied so I took him out after 6th grade. He was home schooled. My son is 24 now and told me that he thought about doing this. This could have been me going through this! 🙏Praying for this family and any other!! Praying for the kids too!! So sorry. 😢💙 No one should have to go through this. This happened in my family (a cousin) many many years ago. Shame on the schools for not taking this seriously.😡
My half-brother Abdallah, who lives in Abu Dhabi (the Capital City of the UAE), also gets bullied at school. Father had to transfer Abdallah to other schools to solve the bullying problem.
10 yrs old ! My heart is broken Schools need to do something NOW ! Something needs to be done with bullying , this has gotten out if hand !! I’m just sickened!
To the dad: if you’re reading this, please know that I am so very sorry for the loss of your son. Wrapping a long distance warm hug around you, your wife and Sammy’s siblings. Extra comfort hugs for Xander who had to witness such a tragic event in his young life. I am so very sorry for all of you! Please accept my deepest condolences 💐
If your child is being bullied, please consider taking your kids out of school and homeschool. They can do things with other kids, but there's a lot less influence and bullying.
My 2nd grade teacher bullied me. His tone with me was always cold. I always had a bathroom problem so he thought I was just stupid. I still have bathroom problems till this day but I can control it now. I told my mom about it and she switched me to a different school. They understood my problem and my new 2nd grade teacher was really nice. Parents should try that sometime. Take them to a school that understands. Plus, gives em a chance to make new friends.
Bullying is still a serious threat for our kids. Nobody deserves to suffer from this. Nor to lose your child because some parents can’t teach their kids how to be respectful to others.
This man seems like the most down to earth, attentive, loving father. Omg I'm so sorry. This is the kind of grief that's SOUL BREAKING. I'm devastated FOR the family! 😢
The school is being so ignorant. He was a young boy who otherwise had no reason to end his life… The school should really pay more attention instead of dismissing it so quickly
Unfortunately that's what pretty much ALL schools do. Then they wonder why there's so many kids losing their lives now, to suicide or from school massacres. The shooter is usually a victim of bullying who got fed up with the school doing nothing to stop it. I've been there myself, thankfully I didn't. Srry for venting. Had to get that out
@@JimmyTheRevR.I.P Why can't CPS get involved and set up an alternative learning program for him at home or designated private tutors? Maybe a new branch needs to be created.
Bullying happened to me too when I was in Elementary School. My teachers usually didn't do anything, especially my 6th grade teacher Mrs. Anderson who suspended me after I spoke up loudly about a student bullying me because it disrupted her class. She's still in the education department to this day. In my experience, most of my elementary school teachers past 1st grade did NOT care about bullying in their classrooms.
That school knew exactly what was going in. We had a niece who was bullied at 12 and the school did nothing . She passed in same manner as their son. Few years later our 36 y.o. son passed in same way from his marriage breaking and it broke him. Losing loved one this way is horrific. It leaves you forever broken and with questions you will never have answers to. I'm so sorry
I’m sorry for your loss 🥺. My kid was being bullied last year in the bus. School said they couldn’t do anything because it was not on school grounds. We made sure to document all of this. We even included the superintendent in the emails and when we did that, that’s when the school responded to us.
This is gut wrenching 😢. I’m sorry for the unimaginable loss. Unfortunately, this is not the first time I’m hearing this and the sad reality is that it is not the last time. Being a father of an 11 year old, I worry about bullying all the time. Schools have to get stricter removing bullies from the school system, ZERO tolerance. RIP Sammy 🙏
So so so so so so heartbreaking that this beautiful little boy thought this was the only way out. Bullies! You have a special place down south! Parents, teach your kids!
10 years..... this is very heartbreaking..... very... sammy deserved a better school a better life.... i feel sorrow for this young boy and his family..... R.I.P sammy Your in a better place now no more bullies jesus is hugging on to you...
Im sorry you have gone through that. My son tried suicide by cutting his wrists at 16. It's not just schools. And Sammy is right. The schools don't listen. My autistic daughter tells me that too. She's 19. Still in school programs. My heart goes out to you and your family. You have such a beautiful family. God bless. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
My heart breaks for this family. No one should ever have to feel this kind of pain. The school and the boe need to be investigated. This happens entirely too often. These schools need to start actually protecting the children who attend.
Im sorry he lost his son. I was bullied too from 1st grade to college. My parents told me to ignore these kids. The crazy thing is they were honor students like me. Only once in 7th grade a boy shorter than me punched me. My parents chose not to suspend boy. Years later, a former friend I lost touch with told me he became a firefighter, did weight lifting and some acting. In hs kids from 2 different trouble families threatened to beat me on the bus. The dean who dressed like a biker took care of these kids. I don't recall if they were suspended by the dean. My parents wouldnt have suspended them. Awhile back I was reading a newspaper article. One of the female bullies opened a hair salon. This was in NYC late 1980s. It seems that maybe from the 1990s the schools started doing nothing about bullying.
@jasondawdy5524 thank you. Many blessings to you and your family. i always focused on teaching people the knowledge I learned. In school, I actually had to tutor some of the kids that bullied me.
Bullies have nothing better to do with their lives than to put others down. And I bet that school district knows more than they’re letting on, they just don’t wanna punish the bullies because they’re afraid of what the parents will say. Or worse they think kindness is gonna fix them. Rest in peace to Sammy.
When i got bullied in elementary school I never got any help and the teachers didn’t do anything and just watch everything happen. My mom had to volunteer in the school to stop the bullying. I left the school in grade 5 and was moved to another school in Canada. Bullying needs to be stopped and taken seriously. rest in peace to this innocent boy ❤
This story is incredibly touching and serves as a powerful reminder of the strength and resilience we possess even in the face of unimaginable loss. My heart goes out to this father, and I deeply admire his courage in navigating such a difficult journey. Thank you for sharing your story and showing that there is hope and a new path even after such a devastating experience. Wishing you all the strength and love as you continue forward.
He was just a kid man Just a kid Seemed like a sweet young man. I’m sorry this happened to you Sammy. Much love to his family. His dad is a very strong man. I don’t think I could have done an interview without balling up.
RIP Sammy 😢 I was bullied as a kid when I was around 9 and 10 and then more in middle school. By the time I was in highschool I was a loner with no friends.
STOP THE BULLYING! IT HAS GOT TO STOP! Parents and Schools need to be more involved. Those who choose to bully needs to know it will be treated as a crime. No child should ever feel suicide is the only option to make the pain go away. DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYES TO WHAT IS TAKING PLACE!
Had teeth like this as a kid, and if you're a kid it get's better. You grow into them, or you can get braces. Never do anything to hurt yourself. Talk to someone.
For all the parents out there, please listen to your children. When they give you the sign of being bullied, please react sooner, as a bullied survivor, all I asked for my parents was to stand for me, but they didn't. Find the principle and transfer your children to a better school. Don't let your children feel unsafe or neglected until it's too late.
In a nutshell.. if your child is being bullied to the point of physical abuse get your ass down to their school ASAP. I don't want to hear that you called the school and that was somehow satisfactory. I don't care if you called 100 times. Actions speak louder than words. Go there, address the problem, find a solution.
I heard about this story months ago, as a kid who's been bullied before heavily, Sammy's passing should be a sign to make bullying in schools more intolerable
I’m really sorry, Xander that you have to witness something that was so traumatic and horrible. I’m so sorry about it. I am praying for you for your whole family. You will make it buddy. I found my brother too, I know you’re pain, bless you bless you and I will pray for you every day.❤
This is absolutely devastating. If only his brother was there that day when Sammy died so that he wouldn’t have seen what happened to him later. RIP Sammy. You deserved better. Hope you’re looking down at your family.
Teachers never listens to the child when stuff like this is reported. He probably thought it makes no sense to report it because nothing is never done. Makes me so angry
Prayers to the family, please people please talk to your kids about bullying bc I’ll tell you right now I’d be at that school every damn day so I’m heard.
My 10 year old son is getting bullied, and I have talked to everyone at the school and don't do anything! They keep saying that they haven't seen it happen!!! So apparently, since they don't sewn it with their own eyes, it's not real or happening??? So frustrating
If my kid is being bullied im homeschooling! I dont care what i have to do to make it happen but im learning from videos like this. Im not losing my child
I think that's the best decision any parent can make because between school shootings and bullying murder etc happening at school every year these schools don't care because they're not their kids smh it's sad how school has changed so much 😭
I lost a cousin from sucide and it really took a toll towards our family. Granted he was 21 where he lived a lot longer than his son it still hurts. I can’t imagine what losing a 10yr old son. That’s heartbreaking. ❤❤
Ten years old.
Ten. Years. Old.
There's no way that school had no idea.

Nah they need to be sued.
Agreed the school board should help him not ignore him they supposed to do their job they should be in prison
@@StudMonkeyCodMthe boy died. It’s murder. They need life without parole
Bullies grow up and become your supervisor, coworkers or cruel adults. It needs to be stopped in childhood. 🤦🏾♀
Unfortunately. But that's what they do
I disagree. Most bullies will grow out of it.
@@wubbied4575 Not true.
and bullies tend to have been bullied themselves.
Agree. I've been bullied at work by coworkers
For the bullying to get to the point that a ten year old would result to suicide is ridiculous, and yet there's no record of which at the school??
They interviewed the staff. C’mon, interview his group of school friends!!!
@victorfrankenstein4409 this wasn't suicide, this was murder.
It’s the parent fault for not making his son strong
Facts only the strong survive

I left the school in grade 5 and was moved to another school in Canada. Bullying needs to be stopped and taken seriously. rest in peace to this innocent boy ❤
Such a precious angel. God have mercy.
This story is incredibly touching and serves as a powerful reminder of the strength and resilience we possess even in the face of unimaginable loss. My heart goes out to this father, and I deeply admire his courage in navigating such a difficult journey. Thank you for sharing your story and showing that there is hope and a new path even after such a devastating experience. Wishing you all the strength and love as you continue forward.
Beautiful words.
Ty
A 10 year old shouldn't think about THAT.
My deepest condolences to the family !
He was ignored by the school🎒📚
I can’t comprehend a child of this age doing this,it’s absolutely unthinkable. My heart breaks for his family.
Such an unimaginable loss! I am so sorry! Rest in paradise, Sammy❤
He was just a kid man
Just a kid
Seemed like a sweet young man.
I’m sorry this happened to you Sammy.
Much love to his family. His dad is a very strong man. I don’t think I could have done an interview without balling up.
RIP Sammy 😢 I was bullied as a kid when I was around 9 and 10 and then more in middle school. By the time I was in highschool I was a loner with no friends.
Aww poor him losing his son, stay safe ❤
Who wants to bet some of those kids who attended his funeral were the ones bullying him?
They need to start holding kids accountable for their actions! No ten year old should be committing suicide. That’s just insane. R.I.P lil man.
STOP THE BULLYING!
IT HAS GOT TO STOP!
Parents and Schools need to be more involved.
Those who choose to bully needs to know it will
be treated as a crime.
No child should ever feel suicide is the only option
to make the pain go away.
DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYES TO WHAT IS TAKING PLACE!
10 years old is way too young, may his soul find its way to fulfill a full life without all this negativity in our world. Sorry for your loss.
I hope Xander is being loved on hard. Imagine the horror of finding your brother like that. Somehow, i know he is. Rest peacefully, Sammy ❤
R.I.P to this young boy, he had a lot to look forward to. 😢❤🙏
Had teeth like this as a kid, and if you're a kid it get's better. You grow into them, or you can get braces. Never do anything to hurt yourself. Talk to someone.
Something needs to be said about this
done*
Plenty is being said, nothing being done
For all the parents out there, please listen to your children. When they give you the sign of being bullied, please react sooner, as a bullied survivor, all I asked for my parents was to stand for me, but they didn't. Find the principle and transfer your children to a better school. Don't let your children feel unsafe or neglected until it's too late.
the sadder facts is that nobody else care apart from these parents of this child, this is just another video in a library of millions
☹️
Hugs.💔
In a nutshell.. if your child is being bullied to the point of physical abuse get your ass down to their school ASAP. I don't want to hear that you called the school and that was somehow satisfactory. I don't care if you called 100 times. Actions speak louder than words. Go there, address the problem, find a solution.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
The school system has never cared about the kids..never have and never will. Accountability is non existent with them.
my heart bleeds..that's why i always tell my children if they were bullied without any reason..fight back for yourself. my sympathies to your family
I heard about this story months ago, as a kid who's been bullied before heavily, Sammy's passing should be a sign to make bullying in schools more intolerable
No one should bully anybody.God bless u and ur family
I’m really sorry, Xander that you have to witness something that was so traumatic and horrible. I’m so sorry about it. I am praying for you for your whole family. You will make it buddy. I found my brother too, I know you’re pain, bless you bless you and I will pray for you every day.❤
God Bless Sammy and his Family 💖 🙏 My heart hurts for you All. May you seek justice from the schools negligence
Why can't school staff prevent bullying?
This is absolutely devastating. If only his brother was there that day when Sammy died so that he wouldn’t have seen what happened to him later. RIP Sammy. You deserved better. Hope you’re looking down at your family.
It's just sad seeing the brother open the door and see his brothers dead body 😭
His mom was there
God bless 🙏 you & give you strength , RIP Sammy , your now with the other Angels 😇 up there.
The parents of the bullies need to be held accountable.
RIP SAMMY, MAY YOUR MEMORY BE A BLESSING FROM NIGERIA 🇳🇬
Teachers never listens to the child when stuff like this is reported. He probably thought it makes no sense to report it because nothing is never done. Makes me so angry
Sadly the school and teachers won’t say a thing to “protect” the culprits
what a beautiful little boy!
Prayers to the family, please people please talk to your kids about bullying bc I’ll tell you right now I’d be at that school every damn day so I’m heard.
The bullying needs to end. 😭
Our schools must bring self defense when it comes to bullying
Great example of why I hate school
10 years old is hard to fathom, May God rest this young mans soul 🕊️
My 10 year old son is getting bullied, and I have talked to everyone at the school and don't do anything! They keep saying that they haven't seen it happen!!! So apparently, since they don't sewn it with their own eyes, it's not real or happening??? So frustrating
Can you homeschool? The damage from bullying can last years. I went through it myself.
What’s the name of the school
10 years old!
Parents, always check with your kids, ask how's their days, how's the school, be friend with their friends and teachers 😢
How sad, and the school will be shut down for not caring for that kid.
I mean…
He did it to himself so…
@@Gator_boy37 0/10 ragebait try harder
hold the bullies accountable
Parents should lawyer up and sue the school for inaction and neglect.
Child abuse in the form of gross neglect.
If my kid is being bullied im homeschooling! I dont care what i have to do to make it happen but im learning from videos like this. Im not losing my child
I think that's the best decision any parent can make because between school shootings and bullying murder etc happening at school every year these schools don't care because they're not their kids smh it's sad how school has changed so much 😭
I lost a cousin from sucide and it really took a toll towards our family. Granted he was 21 where he lived a lot longer than his son it still hurts. I can’t imagine what losing a 10yr old son. That’s heartbreaking. ❤❤
I am so sorry for your loss.
Life in prison for the bullies.
