Transgender teen commits suicide
I think it's rare for someone to drop off the world without wanting others to know why.

I wasn't a boy scout so I don't have the privilege of knowing how to tie a good suicide knot.
Let's be honest if this wasn't a transgender kid would anyone care would this even make a headline ? Offline

Well clearly you're using the royal "we" there, because you're still talking. That or you didn't follow the knot chart when you tied your own rope. We are amused. God im going to get in trouble with all the laughing this morning. I think its better for people who commit suicide to not leave a note, or at the most leave a picture of the person you liked the most or hated the most, don't say which let them squirm with the thought of it. Jokes aside, good parenting saves lives. Offline

I'd leave behind a picture of Obama. Obama caused my death.
I want to be a martyr for the anti Obama movement. fonewear said: » I wasn't a boy scout so I don't have the privilege of knowing how to tie a good suicide knot. or... Offline

But that's what I was saying earlier in the thread. But then, I'm an advocate for more neuropsychological health awareness in all forms. We need to raise children with babysitters with a degree in development psychology!

I'm not pro suicide I just think that this person died thinking he/she is going to spread some awareness. They could have a done a lot more good living and contributing to a cause than dying for it.

There have been many teen suicides that made headlines that have nothing to do with transgender kids. fonewear said: » I'm not pro suicide I just think that this person died thinking he/she is going to spread some awareness. They could have a done a lot more good living and contributing to a cause than dying for it. Probably so. But as it's been said, suicide is not a rational act, despite how reasonable or appropriate it seems to them at the time. Offline

I do think being a teenager now is far more difficult than when I was.

I think Robin Williams thought committing suicide would help boost his career !
Even I think that is offensive... fonewear said: » I do think being a teenager now is far more difficult than when I was. Living is more difficult period. Social media and the internet have put our entire lives on display for everyone, many times whether we want it or not. fonewear said: » I'm not pro suicide I just think that this person died thinking he/she is going to spread some awareness. They could have a done a lot more good living and contributing to a cause than dying for it. This situation will be decried by some, abused for their own purposes by others, supported or denounced. She may have reached more people, however it may be taken, through her death than she may have through her life. For example look at how many people just dismiss femnism altogether nowadays because of a vocal minority. Mostly it is just a wasted life, usually someone who feels trapped with no way out and very little support or understanding from anyone else. Offline

The real problem is its normally not the a holes who everyone hates, a lot of these people could get help if they asked. Sure you have the, lost a child or PTSD situation, where there are signs. I'm talking about these teens who need help and lack the means get it or knowledge of how to. Parents, it starts and ends here.

On this very forum! In fact, I think a few people here just copied and pasted their responses from that thread. Offline

It is the vocal minority that speaks so loud it drowns out the rational feminist. I get that not all feminist are crazy but it is hard to hear the rational ones cause they aren't shouting. fonewear said: » I'd leave behind a picture of Obama. Obama caused my death. I want to be a martyr for the anti Obama movement. Easy. Set yourself on fire in front of the White House. You'll be giving CNN, FOX and Don Lemon at least 3 cycles of continuous 'Fonewear: American Hero or Dangerous Psychopath' coverage. And now here's "Sparthosx" who claims to have known this was going to happen on to speak on our mental health panel. "Thanks Don, great to It's not always the parents' fault, come on haven't you been a teenager too? You never kept things hidden from them? Was it really so hard to do?

With kids the parents surely are the first line and have the primary responsibility. I don't think it's only on the parents; there are teachers, other family members, friends, etc. But "a lot of these people could get help if they asked" is...well, on the surface you'd think that. But it's a very complex issue. Offline

I would definitely wear a shirt asking how the ratings on CNN were before I set myself on fire. Many don't know where to go, how to get help or that they even do need it. Some go to the people they think will help them and are met with disdain or disaproval.
Parents are a huge help in all of this. A solid support structure could be key. Making parents aware of the dangers, of the signs is important. Offline

Robin Williams should have faked his own death then come back to resounding applause and admiration that he is still alive !
That is how you boost a slumping career. fonewear said: » Lakshmi.Sparthosx said: » fonewear said: » I'd leave behind a picture of Obama. Obama caused my death.

If you're really tech savvy record a video ending with "Where's your Obamacare now?" and make sure to fold in some screams for dramatic effect. Offline
