How to tell if someone's read your text?

I texted my friend and she hasn't replied yet and I want to know if there's a way I can tell if she's read it or not.
I have an iPhone but she doesn't so we don't iMessage so I can't check that way.

Why are teenagers killing themselves over bullying?

Kids have been bullying each other for centuries, only now are they killing themselves over it. There's only one possible explanation: They are psychologically weaker. Aka cowards. Wimps. P*ssies.

No it's not cyberbullying either, ending cyberbullying is as easy as clicking the block button.

This is what happens when you don't spank your kids and spoil them with iPhones and iPads. They become sensitive!

In countries where kids are raised to be tough and they live in harsher environments(Syria, for example) the children don't commit suicide even after watching their families be killed, or something drastic like that! They tough it out. But when they live easy lives and have everything granted to them, they simply can't display this mental resilience!

This really worries me. How will this affect our military? If American teenagers are pu$$ys now, how will they function in wartime? If they can't stand being bullied at school, how will they stand war(Real war, not that Iraq sh*t)? We may have the best military technology, but does it really mean anything if our soldiers are cowards?
