Read this sad story of a 13-year-old girl, Izabel who committed suicide after video of dad chopping off her hair as a consequence for her bad behavior was published online and let's know what your thoughts are.

Izabel before the punishment
Via DailyMail:
A 13-year-old girl  leaped to her death from a freeway overpass after her father cut off her hair as a punishment, and video of the aftermath made it online. 
Izabel Laxamana, from Tacoma, Washington, was found on the Interstate 5 freeway last Friday after taking a fall from a bridge above, and died the next day. Footage posted online not long before showed Izabel standing over a pile of her long, black hair as a male voice berated her. However, police have denied that the video and the suicide are directly linked. 
In the footage, Izabel's father characterizes her rough, new haircut as 'The consequences of getting messed up.'
He adds: 
'Man, you lost all that beautiful hair. Was it worth it?'
A timid Izabel said 'no', and the man asked how many times she was warned. Speaking very quietly, she seemed to respond 'a lot'.
Izabel after the punishment

Social media photos from before the video show her with hair well past her shoulders. The footage has since been removed, but one of Izabel's friends has reposted the 15-second clip since.
According to Tacoma police, who spoke to the New York Daily News, Izabel's father did not upload the video, and never meant for it to be published. Instead, it was apparently uploaded by a third party who had been sent the video and 'thought they were being of help' sharing it more widely.  
The department also insisted that Izabel killed herself for reasons other than the video.
It was claimed online that the suicide could have been related to bullying at school, but Tacoma police also said this was not the reason.  According to Tacoma's News Tribune newspaper, Izabel was a student at Giaudrone Middle School. 
A report, which did not identify her by name, said that medical examiners had ruled her death a suicide.
Izabel died after leaping from this bridge over the freeway. She was taken to hospital alive, but did not survive the next day.
