NJ school chief stunningly victim-blames bullied teen Adriana Kuch's suicide on drug use, dad's 'affair'; attackers’ charges upgraded, superintendent resigns
2023-02-12
[NYPOST] A New Jersey school superintendent shifted blame for 14-year-old Adriana Kuch’s death onto the bullied teen and her devastated dad — claiming the youngster used drugs, and that her father’s "affair" led to her inner turmoil.

When asked what school services were provided to Adriana before she took her own life days after she was beaten at school, superintendent Triantafillos Parlapanides babbled on about the grieving family’s private pain.

"Her father was having an affair at the end of her 6th grade. Her father married the woman he had an affair with and moved her into the house," Parlapanides, superintendent of Central Regional High School in Berkeley Township, wrote in an email to the Daily Mail.

"Her grades and choices declined in 7th and 8th grade. We offered her drug rehab and mental services on five occasions but the father refused every time," he said.

The administrator then sunk deeper into the dark revelation, claiming the alleged affair played a role in the death of Adriana’s birth mom.

"We tried helping her several times but mother’s suicide was a major reason she started making poor choices," the school official said.

#1  It is clear this next generation presents some serious mental health issues.

I can only see even more physical extremes happening.
Unless something is done to curb violent game & media influences, now accessible by even pre-schoolers.

Pre-schoolers, I see in stores every day, given a tablet, because the parents are too busy on their own smartphone/ tablets, to raise and babysit their own kids.
