Schoolboy, 12, found hanged after 'bullies threw meat at him for being vegan'

'He had regular appointments with the counsellor and he started self harming,' mum tells court

A schoolboy was found hanged after bullies threw meat at him because he was vegan, it has been reported.

Louie Fenton, 12, died in January after suffering regular bullying, an inquest heard.

“He had regular appointments with the counsellor and he started self harming. They threw meat at him in the canteen because he was a vegan,” his mother, Catherine Fenton, told Hertfordshire Coroner’s Court, according to the Hertfordshire Mercury.

Louie, described as “a wonderful boy, much loved by family and friends,” was forced to eat outside and even took up smoking to cope with the stress of bullying, the court was told.

There's nothing harder for people to do than admit they were fooled.

RIP. I hope the bullies get what they deserve. Also why bully someone because they’re vegan? That’s weak.

Bullying is already bad, but doing it because someone is vegan is just ridiculous and shocking.

Hope he RIP.

Those bullies are a bunch of stupid kids - I'm not sure why everyone here is taking an issue with them rather than the people who run the school, as well as the parents - where were they when their kid started self-harming and smoking AT F***ING 12?

"But his father, Graeme, was reportedly unconvinced he had meant to take his own life, and believed his son, a member of the local sea scout group, died while playing with knots."

Yeahno, self-harm is just a phase, like acne - it's just hormones... 

"The safety, happiness and wellbeing of all pupils at Richard Hale is of paramount importance and the school prides itself on its pastoral care, which has been recognised in our most recent Ofsted report.

 We annually review our anti-bullying policy and advice on bullying, plus the school’s response to it, is displayed in every classroom."

The bullying wasn't even a secret - they were fully aware it was happening, like, the kid told them... Someone clearly sucks at their job :nails:

It's a joke! When you give me that look, it's a joke!

I don’t even know what to say. Because he was vegan? :saladga:

Next thing people will be getting bullied because of the color of their eyes.

Vegans are made out to be an absolute joke in society and it's so frustrating. It's trendy to hate on vegans. Poor kid, way too young. Thoughts go out to his family, couldn't even imagine losing a child. 

The hardest thing in this world is to live in it

:duck: I will never understand why people harm themselves, or even take their life when they’re being bullied. I was bullied, I got picked on! Then one day I grew a pair and started kicking ass. I don’t understand today’s youth! There is so much more to life!!! Those bullies do need to be charged... this is so sad, so sad:hmm:
