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.

It was really weird. One day we ended up sitting next to each other in class, and he started talking to me like I was a regular person and not the object of his bullying for two years. I think it had been more than a full year since I had spoken to him.

I think he had some major problems of his own. (actually that's pretty obvious.) It kind of became this unspoken thing--that was a crappy time in everyone's life and now it's 2 years later and we're all different people now. I never pressed the issue.
