[quote=Anonymous]A woman in our neighborhood committed suicide when I was around age 6. My mom told me she died in an accident. But a couple of years later some of the neighborhood kids were talking about it, and it was very confusing for me. I remember trying to convince them it was an accident, while also trying to understand what it even meant to kill oneself. Then when I asked my mom about it she again insisted it was an accident. I know these types of things happen all the time: we keep details hidden from our kids in their best interest, but kids talk. It's just so confusing when you feel like you're being lied to. So, if the kid asks about it, be honest. [/quote]
