[quote=Anonymous]I'm close to some people who knew this young man. He was active in his church community, mentoring younger children, a caring and kind person. Those who knew him and knew him well are devastated and shocked. I don't know what the tipping point was. But if teens are so overwhelmed with all the expectations placed upon them that they see no way out other than death, some serious reflection is needed. As a parent, I can help my children develop coping skills for life's challenges but I also am responsible for having the discernment to know when to step in and reduce the pressure or lighten the load. I'm not blaming this boy''s parents. Or the school. But we as a society need to wake up. This is causing me to reexamine my priorities with regards to my own children. Prayers to this young man''s family and friends.[/quote]
