There is currently an electronic petition being circulated that needs 100,000 signatures to have this rating looked at again. I do not have the web address with me but will try to remember to look for it at home tonight. I believe all parents, school personnel, and students in middle school and high school should see this. Bullying happens everyday and some adults don't recognize it or choose to act as if nothing happened. This causes many more suicides of teenagers than most people realize.
