as much as the parents are to blame for their son's behavior,
the school should be held accountable because these incidents all happened inside their school. 3 times na documented yung pambubully and now that its gone viral, ngayon lang kayo maginvestigate?! #ateneo #bully— 𝐊𝐔𝐊𝐎𝐎𝐊 (@karlodomingo) December 20, 2018

beyond imposing punitive sanctions on the bully/criminal, i hope ateneo immediately contacts the students who were bullied and their families.
those students need counseling and their families require proper assistance so they and their children can cope with such an atrocity.
