BOSTON -- Sirdeaner Walker, 44, has been surrounded by family after discovering her son, Carl Walker-Hoover, 11, hanging by an extension cord in the third-floor landing of the family's Northampton Avenue home in Springfield.

Walker said her boy, upset yet again over another bullying episode at school, had committed suicide.

"They were always saying, 'you're gay, you must be gay, you act like a girl,'" said Walker.

So the question becomes not where were the boys parents, because the boys parents were trying to DO something. The question is : where were the administrators? Where were the teachers?

Probably the same place the my elementary school teachers were when I was being tormented and hit in the 1970's: Joining in with the kids in their pecking order.
