[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what are parents supposed to do if there are literally no signs? The kids aren’t even a little depressed first?[/quote] There are some signs. But you have to spend a lot of time with the person to know. BTDT. I had suicidal thoughts and masked it well in public, but my parents saw I was depressed and helped me.[/quote] EXACTLY. The signs are always there. But most people are too busy to notice. Back in the day, you had grandma at home who had lots of time to listen and support her grandchildren. [/quote] This is absolutely not true. 15% of suicides show zero signs. None. Not to friends, parents, teachers, counselors. None. Our area has had 3 very public suicides in the last 5 months and there has been a lot of support for kids, teachers, parents and the community. This statistic stuck out as it sadly seems to encompass one of them. [/quote]
