Why this petition matters

Started by Karen Robinson

My beautiful son Jack took his own life on 28 July 2020. He was 15. He was a loving, funny, intelligent boy who was also very sensitive. So sensitive that he couldn’t tell me about the constant bullying he was receiving by people on Snapchat and other social media.  Due to the age of the bullies, there is no consequence! 
My aim is to make Snapchat for 18+ only. Far too many children are being bullied this way and the messages disappear within 2 -24 hours, with NO way of retrieving them. It’s easy for kids to write things, nasty things from behind a keyboard whilst sat in the comfort of their bedroom, knowing that their nasty messages will be gone forever within a few hours. The trouble is, the recipient won’t and doesn’t forget. It plays in their mind over and over again until it consumes their life and they can’t take no more.  It wasn’t until I joined a group for people bereaved by suicide, that I realised that I wasn’t the only one going through this nightmare. The number of people joining everyday amazes me, to think that so many people are suffering this horrible hell is just overwhelming.  Please, please help me get Justice for Jack and all the other young people out there who are suffering, and feel like there is no way out but to take their own life.
