The devastated parents of an 11-year-old boy who killed
himself because he was bullied at school have shared his heartbreaking goodbye.
Diego jumped from a fifth floor window of the family home on October 14 last
year after complaining that he was having trouble at school and was unhappy.
In a bid to persuade authorities in Villaverde, Madrid, to
launch a full investigation into the death of Diego Gonzalez, his parents
decided to publish the tragic letter.
His letter read: "Daddy, Mummy…I hope that one day you
will be able to hate me a little less. I can’t stand going to school and there
is no other way to avoid it.
"Dad, you taught me to be a good person and to keep
promises…Mum, you have taken care of me very well and shown me a lot of
places…Grandpa, you have always been very generous to me and have looked out
for me.
"Tata, you have put up with a lot from me. I miss you
and I hope one day we can meet again in heaven. Well, I say goodbye
forever."
Diego left the note beside a teddy bear he had since he was
born, El Mundo reports. He was a pupil at Nuestra Senora de Los Angeles School
in Madrid and now his parents want answers from the local authority.
"In this school strange things are happening and, at
least, must be investigated," Diego's father told a newspaper.
Despite Diego's letter and several other complaints from
parents at the school, police 'ruled out' his death was due to a case of bullying.
