Clearly you did not. People can hide things easily. Not one of my close friends know about my depressive past but they would all say they knew me.
You are ignorant beyond belief it is incomprehensible.

And? It's no different to having Whitney Housten on your deathlist.

So was the child also selfish? Or were the teenagers who made his life un-liveable the selfish ones?

So you would prefer that boy and that father to just live in suffering and torture from their own minds?

Well clearly I did. And exactly how am I ignorant? Because I fail to be a sheep and say exactly what's on my mind?

I don't agree with suicide and have some sympathy with the case Glenn is forwarding here. However, it's impossible to know what is actually happening inside the head of the person concerned, unless you (rather impossibly) walk a mile in their shoes.
No one knows how the connecting circuits of our brains, are firing/misfiring in the heads of others. |

You cannot even contemplate the fact that someone you 'knew' had other things going on that she wouldn't discuss with you which would put her in a pit of helplessness. No not ignorant at all.

It's obvious, the alternative on offer seems to be a lifetime of unimaginable emotional and mental suffering which can never be assuaged. We all lead very different lives depending on the interaction of so many environmental, circumstantial, familial and genetic factors. How on earth can anyone say there is a "one size fits all" solution to such an emotive and personal issue? Having an open mind on the subject does not mean it is condoned - just understood.

The child was selfish to kill himself and the bullies were just as selfish for causing such upset. I fail to understand why anyone is condoning this, but to instead insult someone who disagrees with suicide. And I'm being rude??

I know how this kid felt, nearly.
I was not bullied for being gay, because I'm not. But I was bullied because of a disability and once, just ONCE felt suicidal. And it's horrible, a horrible feeling. So you, Glenn, have NO right to say that its selfish. |

Yes I do.
It's my opinion. And it's an opinion that echoes across the world.

We are not condoning suicide but sometimes it is an option, if someone is living an amazingly painful life with no joy and no hope, why should that person carry on living it?

Glenn, I am not going to argue with you, but I ask one question, Have you ever felt suicidal OR tried for a reason of bullying or a relative dying?
