FOREWORD

October 7, 2003, will always be the day that divides my life. Before that day, my son Ryan was alive. A sweet, gentle, and lanky 13-year-old fumbling his way through early adolescence and trying to establish his place in the often confusing and difficult social world of middle school. After that day, my son would be gone forever. A death by suicide. Some would call it bullycide or even cyberbullycide. I just call it a huge hole in my heart that will never heal.

Ryans young teen life included swimming, camping, skateboarding, biking, snowboarding, playing computer games and instant messaging. A typical array of healthy and normal teen activities or so it seemed. My son loved being online, staying connected with his friends after the school day and throughout the summer. But, during the summer of 2003, significantly more time was spent online, mainly instant messaging. I was concerned and felt compelled to remind him of our internet safety rules.

No IMing/chatting with strangers

No giving any personal information (name/address/phone) to strangers

No sending pictures to strangers

No secret passwords

Our last rule was a safety one. I told my two older children that they had to use the password I gave them for any accounts they signed up. I promised I would not read personal messages or spy on them but, God forbid you dont follow the first few rules and you just disappear one day. I will want instant access to all of your activities online. Never in a million years did I imagine this rule would someday end up becoming the key to unlocking the mystery of why my son took his own life.
