I'll tell you right now the act he committed was not a mistake or accident. I'm 13 and I know for a fact that I wouldn't let my classmates or myself attempting such crime. Why this personally impacts me is that I had family suffer with this. I'm also a female who doesn't live in a safe environment. I'm constantly paranoid and scared thing like this might happen to me. That's what I find disgusting. People choosing not to put others in their shoes. Sadly we still have victims fighting for themselves everyday when it comes to these topics. If he hadn't apologized now, he wouldn't have ever thought of it. People who do these thing often tend to brush of the subject and live happily with their lives. While the people who went through this walk with trauma and sometimes even shame. It's hard to come amongst thousands of people with these issues. It pains me. I understand that you may not agree with me but, please try to take this into consideration. It makes me feel bad.
I'm honestly so pissed seeing people forgive him. I don't give a sh*t of how young he was. I'm sure he knew that whatever he was doing was extremely wrong but still chose to do so. The thing I don't get is why are people forgiving him like that. Sexual Assualt? Bullying? Are you serious? He was for real 13/14. He literally should be focusing on what he wants after high school rather than continuing this nonsense. I don't care about how people say get used to it. When these problems occur, go to the root of them and solve them. It's better like this so problems like this don't repeat or begin. But this sh*is just being swept under the rug like it was nothing. Then again there are people suffering this type of nonsense today. But that also just being swept away too. When we easily forgive something like this, it's easily forgotten. I can't imagine the trauma the victims endured. But there is a limit to how we should punish him. I'm just extremely disturbed because I'm 13 and this shows something like this can happen to me. It really pains me reminding me of how cruel and gross this world is. I suffer bad paranoia and this just doesn't help. Having agoraphobia isn't a joke. But to those who are currently suffering, prayers are being sent. There should be light on these types of things. All I hope for now is justice.
like i really don't want to believe this
