Friend: Aunt told school Phoebe Prince was ‘susceptible’

This article from the Boston Herald talks about how the aunt of the deceased, Phoebe Prince, had warned the school that Phoebe was bullied in her former school and was very susceptible to it, and had a tough time dealing with it. When questioned about this, the principal of the school, as well as the others who were told about this seemed to have a convenient loss of memory pertaining to this issue and later did not return calls and refused to comment. One official admitted to having been warned about the issue. This article points out the unfortunate way in which bullying has become almost a normal thing in schools. Teachers and school officials see it as a phase that teenagers go through and not something that can be tragic. As we can see, it is.
