'He became Felix who everyone hated': Mother pens heartbreaking open letter to the bullies who drove her son, 17, to kill himself after he became a target because he was not allowed to play Call of Duty

A grieving mother penned a heartbreaking open letter to the bullies who drove her teenage son to suicide. 

Felix Alexander, 17, died when he stepped in front of a train near his home in Worcester on April 27, after telling his parents he was going to school.

An inquest heard Felix had killed himself after suffering years of bullying.  The torment started when he was just 10 years old. 

Classmates at the £13,000-a-year King's School teased him because he was not allowed to play violent video game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

I have perfect vision, and yet I wear these computer glasses every day — here’s why

JINS

I'm a very lucky person. Even after decades of subjecting my eyes to TV, computer screens, phones, tablets, and handheld game consoles, I still have 20/20 vision. 

What I have had, though, is a very strange sleeping pattern. In high school, college, and beyond, I would routinely stay up, sleepless, until all hours of the night. That's a common story for people who love gadgets, and some attribute it to "blue light."

In a nutshell, blue light is the part of the light spectrum that gets deepest into your eye. Being exposed to it tells your brain, "Hey, you should be up." Before electricity, humans would get most of their blue light from the sun. Get up when the sun was up, get drowsy when the sun went down, and repeat.
