the story I'm talking about involves sexual assault and suicide this is the story of Rehtaeh Parsons a 17-year-old girl from Dartmouth Nova Scotia Canada she experienced something that no one should ever have to go through an experience that would haunt her so deeply that she felt like there was no other way to escape the pain and to take her own life her story is not only heartbreaking but disturbing uncomfortable and it's a huge warning to all parents that we need to better protect our children and be more accountable of her parenting after listening if you have teenagers or preteens at home maybe it's time to open a dialogue with them about their own experiences because knowing what's going on in their lives is half the battle it's only then that we can take action as necessary rental Parsons who also went by Ray did not live a long life
