A British mother has shared some heartbreaking pictures of her daughter on a hospital bed on the pre-teen's 10th birthday after she attempted suicide over the relentless bullying she faced at school. 27-year-old Jess Brown, of Worcestershire, said she feared for her daughter, Lilly-Jo's life and slammed the school for not taking appropriate action despite filing numerous complaints.

According to the Daily Mail, Brown said she had to fight to convince her daughter to attend class at the Witton Middle School in Droitwich each day and that she had spoken to teachers every single day for 12 weeks to try to resolve the situation. But this past Monday, the mother realized something was seriously wrong.
