We live in the 21st century but in this modern era, humans have failed to decipher basic human emotions. We have a young generation who knows everything about the latest gadgets and the latest trends but little do they know about empathy and kindness. Lack of empathy and basic human kindness has led to bullying in school. Every day we read multiple articles and stories on bullying yet little is done to tackle the matter practically.

#1 Bullying scars the child for life

Recently a heartbreaking video of a 9-year old Quaden is going viral on social media. The video, filmed by the kid's mom shows the impact of bullying. How it scars the child for life and breaks them from inside. The kid who is just a young boy, with pain in his eyes is can be seen talking to his mum about suicide.

Yarraka and Quaden both live in Brisbane in Australia.

#5 The video has garnered more than 17 million views so far and has raised the question of bullying in schools?

#6 According to Yarraka, because of bullying Quaden has tried to take his life before

In the video, the mom could be heard saying, “I’ve just picked my son up from school, witnessed a bullying episode, rang the principal, and I want people to know—parents, educators, teachers—this is the effect that bullying has,”

#7 Members of Australia’s National Rugby League are providing the best emotional support to Quaden as possible

#8 Comedian Brad Williams has set up a gofund me account for Quaden to send him to Disneyland with his mum

This makes me sick. I’ve been trying to get in touch with this family. If any of my Austrialian fans know this family. Please tell this wonderful boy that he has me and an army of friends all over the world that support him.
