[quote=Anonymous]"Suicide is real and it's increasing. Maybe if we didn't treat it as taboo people would feel more able to discuss their feelings openly and we could prevent attempts like this." Lots of awful, horrible things are real, but that doesn't mean you expose your children to them before they're old enough to process and understand. I'm willing to bet that they wouldn't want their boys to watch a graphic documentary about child molesting or the Manson murders or read a detailed account of the atrocities of the Holocaust. All of those things are real, and horrific, and not appropriate for children. It should never be the child's responsibility to process and emotionally account for his parents' bad decisions. Putting all this detail out there in the wild just makes it more likely that all 3 of her boys will have to deal with this tragedy publicly, and that's a lot to put on a kid who is already dealing with a significant trauma.[/quote]
