[quote=Anonymous]For the PPs harping on how "appalling" and "unconscionable" it was to break the news in February, the parents' lawsuit (which is linked in the NYT story) says that that communication was initiated by the mom, not by the school. She emailed asking their thoughts about the next year. Which suggests that the family already understood that his future at the school was not assured. Perhaps a more nuanced picture of the situation would come out if this ever goes to court. I can understand why a grieving family would want to find someone or something to blame for an unimaginable tragedy. But fixating on the school seems unhealthy. I have friends with kids who struggled with suicidal ideation when they were teenagers. It's excruciating for everyone involved, even when it doesn't end in a worst-case scenario. And sadly there are often no simple causes or fixes.[/quote]
