Pretty tough to do if you love your family and the problem is external to the family.

It could be that this was a pretty big cry for help, it sounds like she tried to OD on a non lethal drug, and then cut herself with a meat cleaver and then called for help.

when your that age, and your father is that famous for both good (music) and bad (touching kids) reasons, its not like you can just ignore it. Add to that she was supposedly being hammered via twitter and other media, and you probably become pretty vulnerable.

As far as the social media thing it just seems that its become the ultimate conduit for bullies to attack from the shadows, its become a fairly useless tool because it doesn't have an enforceable code of conduct.

Keepin it real is all cool and that, but its literally become a bully cannon for idiots who crave to attack while remaining in the shadows.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if cyber bullying becomes a felony offense, especially if someone kills themselves because of it.
