Michelle Carter, You Deserve To Rot In Prison

The human life is precious and we need to take a stand and help someone in pain, not push them over the edge.

Michelle Carter, You Deserve To Rot In Prison

Upon recent events, a girl from Massachusetts by the name of Michelle Carter encouraged her boyfriend Conrad, to kill himself. She sent him dozens of texts helping him plan his suicide out as well as conducting on how he should do it. Recently she was charged 15 months of jail time for involuntary manslaughter... are you kidding me?

This girl new how much of a bad place he was in. She knew he was in pain and needed help. Yet, she continued to push him over the edge even more. She manipulated him into thinking its the only thing he can do. What person in their right mind would think that suicide is the only option? She deserves so much more time than what she is getting, but see that's the thing. Our justice system is so corrupt. A rapist by the name of Brock Turner, gets out of jail in 6 months, because his dad tells the judge he couldn't mentally take it. Are you serious? Who gives a crap about how he feels, shouldn't we all imagine how that poor girl feels? But that's another story, for another time.

Michelle was his girlfriend, she is supposed to be their for him, comfort him, help him, not convince him to kill himself! This girl stripped him from his happiness, fed him absurd ideas about how the world was better off without him and encouraged him to harm himself. That alone would've killed anyone's will to live. Instead, she should of encouraged him to live, to not end his beautiful life. She could have been the only one to save him yet, she was the only one to push him over the edge.

He was trying to back out several times because he was scared, he at one point wanted to continue to live. Until Michelle continues to manipulate his mind and lower his self-esteem to the point where he doesn't feel wanted. Her words were clear and present danger. She continued to convince him and pressure him to go forward with it. Her words pushed him over the edge and those words caused another person physical harm.

Screw more jail time, she needs to be sent to a mental institution and maybe she will learn that words do more damage than others realize. From what I see, this girl is mentally messed up if she thinks what she did was okay. You helped an innocent man take his own life, how is that anywhere close to okay?

Michelle mentally abused him to the point he couldn't take it. If you ask me, she deserves life in prison. She helped take the life of an innocent person, whether he did it on his own will or not. He didn't want to do it at one point until she pushed him to do it. That's immoral and she deserves so much more than what she got.

The human life is precious and we need to take a stand and help someone in pain, not push them over the edge. The whole point of #suicideawareness is to be AWARE and to help that person! You did neither. You took a life and I hope you rot in prison for it. Michelle, you bullied him, you broke him down, and you helped take his life. Its about time you and everyone else realize that words do more damage than anyone realizes.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
