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.

I don't blame the parents at all. It sounds like the mother tried to get his teacher to do something about it, but they brushed her off. The same damn thing happened to me as a kid. My parents tried telling the teachers and the administration to put a stop to it, but they didn't do a goddamn thing. As [livejournal.com profile] eschewv said, either they were busy trying to make it through the day or they were intimidated by my tormentors' parents.
