4. Teens React To The Death Of Amanda Todd

If you didn't already know the story, back in 2012 Amanda Michelle Todd committed suicide at the age of 15. Prior to her death, Todd posted a video on YouTube in which she used a series of flash cards to tell her experience of being blackmailed into exposing her breasts via webcam, as well as being bullied and physically assaulted. The video went viral after her death, resulting in international media attention. In this episode the teens watch said video and it's fair to say that the majority of them were heartbroken, with one girl even becoming quite visibly upset. They then discuss everything from the pressures of high school to what should be done about cyberbullying. With over 20 million views, hopefully this video (along with the original) reminds people that this is a problem that effects thousands of kids at any given time. Bullying isn't just "kids being kids", it's an actual problem that can have very real ramifications.
