[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC came home from first year at a northeastern college and they have a significant other (been dating since October). through casual conversation reveals that the significant other was committed to a mental institution for an attempt to take their life. This was when the individual was in middle school. DC told me the SO is on medication and it is all under control. Never encountered this type of situation before. Is this a major red flag? Or can people overcome these types of demons from a young age? [/quote]

Plenty of people are living completely normal lives with mental illness. They don't tell people like you because clearly you're prejudiced. It is not a "major red flag." But you are! I hope she doesn't marry in to your family. [/quote]

Mental illnesses are genetic - why introduce those genes when there are plenty of other healthier options for my kid.[/quote]

Good grief. This is some weird eugenics thing. But in any case, we don’t even know that OP’s kid is heterosexual, if they plan on having children, and if they plan on doing IVF with genetic testing.[/quote]
