TN State GOP Rep. Allegedly Blames Parents for Child Suicides & Now the Fallout Has Begun: ‘A Disgrace’

Rep. Jeremy Faison Accused of Blaming Parents for Child Suicides

Rep. Jeremy Faison (Image Credit: Tennessean)

A Tennessee State Representative has turned some heads with his statement that it is a lack of values — not bullying — that has been leading some children to tragically take their own lives. On Tuesday, Rep. Jeremy Faison made the comments during a debate in the state’s House of Representatives over a cyberbullying bill.

“We can’t continue to legislate everything. We’ve had some horrible things happen in America and in our state, and there’s children that have actually committed suicide, but I will submit to you today that they did not commit suicide because of somebody bullying them,” Faison proclaimed. “They committed suicide because they were not instilled the proper principles of where their self-esteem came from at home.”

Based on his words, it seems Faison was saying that education about self-esteem in the home is the driving force behind youth suicide rather than rampant bullying.

It didn’t take long for the Tennessee Democratic Party to condemn the comments, the Tennessean reports. Here is a statement that was issued just minutes after Faison made his remarks about youths and suicide:

During the debate, Rep. Jeremy Faison spoke out against the bill, displaying a “boys will be boys” mentality towards bullying, and ignoring the public outcry from parents who have lost children to suicide after years of vicious and intolerable harassment.  He then went one step further and said that “I will submit to you today, that they didn’t commit suicide because of somebody bullying them, they committed suicide because they were not instilled the proper principles of where their self esteem came from.”

Faison is apparently blaming the parents of suicide victims for their inability to “instill the proper principles” in their children.  What a disgrace.  Now, of course a tall and burly Faison doesn’t see any problems with bullying, as he admitted, he was perfectly capable of defending himself or dishing out punishment as he saw fit.  But many kids don’t have that ability. That is why laws like these need to be passed.

It is unfortunate that some in the Republican Party have become the protectors of bullies.  Of course, it is not terribly surprising, because as a legislative group they are nothing but bullies, disparaging and demeaning those without power in this country in order to build themselves up.  So it is no wonder that they would see no big deal with the problems associated with childhood bullying in this country, and become the defenders of harassment.

Watch Faison‘s statements on the Tennessee House floor, below:

Following the incident and the fallout, the politician issued a statement saying that his word choice was regrettable and clarifying the motivating forces behind his opposition to the cyberbullying bill. In his view, childhood bullying should not be criminalized.

“After reviewing my comments on the House Floor today, I regret what was a poor choice of words. My true intent was to protect children from becoming criminals,” his statement read. “Suicide has touched my family, and I would never want a parent or family member to feel they were responsible for such an unimaginable tragedy.”

(H/T: The Tennessean)

      If we allow the Left to use bullying laws, they will outlaw free speech and the freedom of reljigioun with it. Liberal teachers are the biggest bullies of all. They are intolerant of all but uniform thinking and agreement with themselves. They want to be all authority governing your mind and life. Give them bullying laws and they will bully you and children with it.

      If your going to prevent bullying for children, then you have to prevent bullying in the workplace – an impossible job. The earlier children learn about both sides of bullying and how to handle it the better, because we can’t get rid of it in adulthood. We have it in the workplace, in the neighborhood, by “customer service” reps, all over. If a child grows up in a cocoon and has his first bullying experience in High school or college. He thinks the world is ending because he/she does not measure up to some unreasonable standard — so he/she is worthless in the eyes of society and will never be seen as useful. They fail to be able to analyze whether the standard is ******** or not, so they kill themselves or fail in school or quit/get fired from their jobs. It becomes a spiral.

      He echos my words. I have said all along that there was something else wrong with these kids that caused them to commit suicide other than bullying. I agree with him…we cannot legislate everything, but the liberals will continue to try. Kids need to deal with the bullying and maybe if they weren’t coddled all their lives they would have the stamina to deal with it. I was bullied…..so I learned to fight back and “stand my ground.” To the person who said there are more gang violence today….not true….I remember when I was studying for my B.S. in Criminal Justice….and the riot gear they had on display for all the gang riots they had to deal with in the 70s.

    An epiphany of sorts for me, but I’m slow on the uptake sometimes.

    How is bullying defined? In its basic sense, it’s extracting submission or compliance from someone by using coercive action.

    Parenting in its basic form uses that very technique. Is it possible that this new “war on bullying” is actually a “war on parenting?”

    Food for thought, I guess.

      No different than the strategies used by many a special interest. You can bully… it just has to be for the PC-approved reason. Enter identified protected classes, hate speech laws, and propaganda campaigns.
      What this story hints at is a search for “THE ANSWER.” Anytime you have a problem with folks searching for THE ANSWER, the general population is about to be told by the state how all must comply and be ready to give up rights and accept another authoritarian attack upon free will. Because the state finds it oh so easy to be a bully when given reason. It’s a beautiful system.

      TEXASBETA…Bullying is an age old problem in schools, and capable teachers and principals, not an invasive rule-issuing government, make for the best and correct solution. Government has more important concerns to get on with.
      But of course the government website advises what we citizens can do to stop “bullying”. It’s notable for giving special attention to gay/lesbian/bisexual and transgendered K-12 students and of course that must constitute a huge cross-section of students in this country yes? Nah…no agendas here…keep moving people. Obama’s Czar of Safe Schools..Kevin Jennings is behind this “bullying” agenda.
      Jennings is a militant homosexual himself who founded the homosexual advocacy group, GLSEN. You’ll recall TEXAS BETA that GLSEN wants to teach school age children extreme sex acts like f#sting? What would you prefer thwarted in our schools BETA? Bullying or your 12 year old son being taught about getting f#sted? I can provide the article if you doubt me.
      And let‘s not forget this legislation you’re so passionate about seeing go through TEXAS BETA offers lots of budget draining litigation possibilities for our schools if these “bullies” are not stopped. Is common sense something that the left frowns on TEXAS BETA?

Harry Hay was a lifelong Marxist and homosexual advocacy militant. Harry also supported NAMBLA. Let me sum that up for you TEXAS BETA…Obama’s “Czar of safe Schools, Kevin Jennings..the guy behind the democrats’ push for “anti-bullying” laws started a group that wants to teach f#sting to school age children and admires a man that supports NAMBLA..the group that advocates that adults should be allowed to have sex with children..including infants. Jennings himself refused to report a boy under his authority- at a school that Jennings taught at- who he believed at the time was under-age and soliciting sex from older men. Let me re-iterate for you TEXAS BETA because you seem to be a bit on the dim side….Obama’s Czar of Safe Schools, Kevin Jennings is behind this “bullying” agenda you’re so passionate about..and Jennings has started groups and supports individuals that espouse teaching extreme sex acts to children or indeed advocate adults having sex with children. You still worried about bullies now TEXAS BETA?

    One of my kids is going thru elementary school right now, where there is a myriad of anti-bullying policies.

    But, none of the policies work. Bullying WILL happen, regardless of rule. Best to learn to deal with it.

      My 12 year old daughter, athlete, is being cyber bullied at the current time. We have taken the opportunity for a dual path solution #1 leading her in prayer for the other girls, and forgiving them #2 addressing the issue with the school counselor and parents. BOTH paths are important, althought #1 makes the most impact. Pray for your “enemy” and those that spitefully use you……

      I kinda agree with the Statesman….maybe not in all of the situations, but clearly many of these kids did not have parents involved in their lives or the parents did not know how to give them real HOPE!! (not hope and change…)

    99% of bullies come from Democrat parents, no wonder the Democrats are up in arms.

    The problem is Faison is telling the truth, just not in a tactful way. Sometimes the truth hurt. This does not diminish the loss of the child who took their life from bullying, but lets look at the facts here.

    1. The child does not speak to their parents out of fear.
    2. The child does not tell anyone else, even friends.
    3. The child internalizes the message as a fault in him/her rather than the bully.
    4. The parents are not in the child’s life and generally ignore them.
    5. The parents dismiss the child’s mood swings and pass it off as something else.
    6. The parents have not set an avenue for the child to come to them with issues.

    So tell me where Faison is wrong?

      Nothing wrong with your assessment at all. Couple things to add…

      The child doesn’t have an avenue to actually *fix* the bullying issue. The victim gets punished alongside the bully if they stand up for themselves in many cases.

      Now, I *never* make this case, but there could be a case made for violent content in media instilling – how would we say – “non-traditional” methods with which to deal with issues. But to be clear, that *must* be paired with a lack of any other set moral boundaries. I’ve played every violent game in the book, and I’ve never shot up a school. So, it’s a case, but it must be paired with many other aspects to be valid.

      So, it really does boil down to bad parenting in – not all – but some cases.

    The parents are causing a lot of the suicides as well as these activists pushing kids over the edge, but leaving them to stand alone among the average child. What I mean by this is when you have a child around 12 that thinks he is gay and being told to come out of the closet by adult gays in a classroom with maybe 30 straight kids they are going to look at him as different. This child claiming to be gay wants to feel like others and maybe wishes he had GF’s like other boys, but is being told by activists he is different and will always be under a struggle in life, has no confidence and takes his own life. If the parents didn’t know this, they should have….get to know your children and don’t let media outlets and internet sites destroy your children. I used this case bc I read about several similar to this. Another one is bullying bc of a child being overweight, and how can they not feel bad when the first lady is condemning fat kids and even some have been threatened to be taken from their homes, so this puts both the child and the parents under stress. Bullying will never stop and the only way to stop the kids is for us adults to teach by example, but you know how far that will go. Teach your child to stand their ground as best you can and to come to you when they feel lonely or different, and by all means make sure you don’t have the bully, if so correct them at home

      In liberalville..it‘s always the other guy’s fault. It’s the “bully’s” fault that the kid took his or her life. It‘s never the messed up kid’s or the oblivious or unfit parent that we should be looking at. Notice I said “parent” -singular? And let’s not mince words here- “bully” is a code word of the homosexual lobby today. It’s to insinuate the homosexual agenda into schools to younger and younger children. Kevin Jennings-Obama’s stealth pedophile and Czar of Safe Schools (Orwell must be laughing so hard right now) has been pushing the “bullying” programme. Kevin Jennings is a militant homosexual who founded GLSEN. You’ll recall GLSEN wanted to teach school age school age children extreme sex acts like f*sting. Kevin Jennings is the man who admitted he didn’t report a boy under his authority who he BELIEVED to be underage and was seeking out older men for sex. I applaud Faison and he shouldn’t have backed down from his words. We need more people like Faison.

    Child bullying victims commit suicide because they are emotionally weak. This man is correct. They need enough self esteem to decide to be strong and stand their ground, and be victorious over the challenge by any means necessary. When I was a youth I was insecure about myself and was bullied at times. It was a very bad time in my life. I never seriously thought about killing myself, instead I figured I’d hurt one or two of the bullies. Started hiding bats and pipes in bushes along the route I walked home from school. I was ready and willing. Someone told the bullies what I was preparing for them. They backed off figuring I was crazy and they weren’t ready to die yet. I have never backed down from a bully no matter how big they were or how bad they tried to intimidate me…scare me and I’ll deal with you…I hate bullies.

    The man is right. That doesn’t mean it was to make a family feel bad. But home taught values are down the toilet, and he is right. Build up self esteem, honor, respect, responsibility and pride. Then let’s see how an individual handles himself when a bully approaches. Not saying it will change all cases, but I’d be willing to bet it changes many situations. If the bully is taught all the above values, they certainly would be less apt to be a bully in the first place. I wish people would stand their ground on their statements. Explain them, but back them up and don’t back down when challenged.

    At the core of the matter he is right, the fact is though bullying continues on; and the constant pounding of our children to ‘everyone is a winner’ and ‘PC garbage correctness’ underminds all that many parents try to instill that is true and good in them. One thing the kids have to be able to do is to trust in their parents that when a problem such as online bullying or regular bullying comes along, the parents will listen and back them up.

I have often wondered why parents allow the bullying to continue for years. I would take my kids out of school, home school them, send them somewhere else. I would do something. If my child was being bullied it would be taken care of. I would not rest or stop until the situation was rectified.

Bullies are the ones who should be taken out of the schools and home taught! Schools should be held accountable if they don’t stop bullies. Bullies are the ones who usually come from homes where they learn this behavior.. are usually abused and act out what they get… its the only power they have… Why should bullied children have to be home taught?? The real thing this guy is doing is protecting the bullies and laying the blame on parents of children who committed suicide. Typical ploy by a leftwing liberal Domocrat! He is saying.. lets just keep the bullies in school so they can continue to bully.. lets not punish them in anyway. Many years ago I read an article that those who end up becoming abusive and who murder were in fact bullies in the school system!!

      And how many school shootings are done by bullies? If you look at the statistics, school shootings where more than one victim are involved are usually done by the kids that were bullied and felt that they had to retaliate against the bullies or popular kids. It means that those individuals do not know how to react to social situations or deal with the reality that there are going to be people that you come in contact with that don’t like you for whatever reason. That can be blamed on the parents. Parents who raise their kids and tell them that they are wonderful and everybody is a winner and you can’t lose. When the get older and realize that the world doesn’t work like that they become enraged and believe that there must be something wrong with everybody else in society because they are perfect.

      My parents taught me to walk away. They instilled Christian values in me that allowed me to be able to forgive somebody. I never got into a fight and I never felt like a loser despite being overweight and picked on for being a book worm. I was able to laugh at myself and turn things around to laugh with those doing the bullying. And more importantly I learned that once I have that diploma, I NEVER have to see those people in high school again.

      Until you recognize that the bully is the one who is insecure one, bullies will continue. Children who get bullied need to be educated that it is the bully not them. You need to say it over and over so when the time comes, they will remember those words, “It is not me, it is them”.

      I am sorry you were bullied, but who did you tell? Did you sit quietly and let it happen? That is on you for not telling. We can’t help you, if you don’t tell. I am also a Republican, but you must recognize that you can be part of the problem also.

    I work in a high school and hear from kids and parents all the time about “bullying” – I am still trying to get someone to define the term for me. If it is verbal – I grew up in the time when “sticks and stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me” so how did we get so soft that words have the power to “make” our kids kill themselves? If it is physical – assault – there are laws against that already so just enforce what is there. I have five daughters and I can not keep them from making nasty comments about their sisters at home when I am there too, so how can we expect teachers to do what we as parents can not do at home?

      great post. I’m ordering his book soon.

      Still, in the past, I doubt there was as much gang violence as there is today. The most common rules broken 60 years ago were chewing gum, talking out of turn, and running in the halls. Now we must contend with threats like murder, rape and drug use in schools.

    Can’t say that I disagree with him. I think he is spot on.

      Let me know when and where, cause when they throw a stone, I will throw lead!!! He is right, there has always been class bullies and people have dealt with it since time began. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. There are ways to deal with bullies and suicide only hurts the one being bullied and their family.

    Liberals SURE do know how to TWIST words and take them OUT OF CONTEXT! The guy needs to speak out and DEFEND himself. He is correct about not being able to LEGISLATE behavior. It never works. PARENTS need to be way more involved in their kids lives. You need to know everything that is GOING ON!

      Republicans had better be ready to fight back during this Democrat War on Capitalism , especially since the Democrats have the Lap Dog Media in their pocket….
