While social media cannot be controlled 100%, many other media organizations report matters without protecting or maintaining ethics most of the times.

Rest in Peace dear Radhya. With this bold, firm and polite message from the parents who themselves are yearning for closure of this painful experience we adults and the media has a few lessons to learn.
1. Loose talk based on assumptions hurts and even kills people. Don't do it. Verify facts if you want to enjoy eureka moments.
2. Judgmental gossip be it by parents or teachers is disruptive and in this case life threatening.
3. Media specially cheap youtube channels must be educated to self govern themselves.
4. It will be good for all schools specially CIS to nip the problem in the bud and establish codes of conduct for the adults and teachers who are essential stakeholders. The risk of not having loose talk prevented and discouraged will eventually harm your corporate name and goodwill.
5. Nowadays kids are prone to not handle stress and injustice as well as in the past. Schools should have a situation management protocol to immediately manage the aftermath.

The vicious and bullying by the other student parents must be prosecuted Tuesday, 22 October 2024 04:35 PM
The names of the parents and teachers who caused the bullying for the deceased must be found out. Those same lot will not attack other girls making false accusations. They must be made known to all and shamed for the harm they caused the deceased.

It's not surprising actually. That school is just weird. The kids have unrealistic lifestyles.The school does not prepare kids to lead a normal life.Many parents are pretentious and talk about other kids and parents.

So sorry for your loss. Some people in this world are beyond wicked. I have seen some of the comments on social media and they are nothing but evil. My love and prayers are with the families and loved ones of the three children.

It is unfortunate. However, if you had done your parental duties well, your family wouldn't have gone through this much because you all had an idea that she was under tremendous stress after the previous incident at Altair.

Well social media is social media for the good and the bad. Regarding conventional media there should be clear set to rules and ethics. Which seems to be lacking in this country.
