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.

That makes me almost incoherent with rage.

No-one ever said like that to me — but that'd be because I didn't trust anyone enough even to let them know I was being bullied.

I still don't. I'm amazed when people act decently rather than abominably, because I don't expect it, because so few people do.
