New Delhi: An Australian mother shared a heart-wrenching video of her nine-year-old son to show the devastating effects of bullying. In a video that went viral, Yarraka Bayles’ son Quaden Bayles can be seen sobbing in her mother's car after getting bullied by one of his school mate for his height. Bayles was born with Achondroplasia dwarfism.


“I wish I could stab myself in my heart,” Quaden, 9, says through tears. “I want someone to kill me.”

Yarraka says she wanted to share the video to let people know how bullying does to people and she wanted to get advice from other parents on how to deal with the effects, including suicide attempts from her son.


“I want people to know, this is the effect bullying has,” she says from behind the camera. “This is what bullying does. All it takes is one more instant, and you wonder why kids are killing themselves.”

Breaking down in tears herself, she adds, “I want people to know how much this is hurting us as a family … I’ve got to constantly keep my eye on him because of the suicide attempts.”

“Nobody knows the battles we face in private,” Bayles says in the video. “I usually share all the positive highlights, but this stuff needs to be addressed to save our babies’ lives.”
