[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's ludicrous to blame teen stress on the high school [i]because[/i] the teen didn't experience stress during middle school.  Come on.  [/quote]
It's not only one source. Come on.[/quote]
Tell that to the "loved Cooper, Langley stressed us out (and was the source of [i]every[/i] problem we had), moved to Bullis, life is grand (except for affirmative action)" poster. If you don't know her, you haven't read any thread directly or tangentially related to FCPS in the last year.  [/quote]

It is not just one source. It is:

1) other parents
2) other kids
3) doctors
4) mental health professionals
5) the school itself [/quote]

Actually, it is:
You don't know because you don't know the circumstances of the lives of these recent deaths.  The one I know about has none of your # 1) - 5).  [/quote]

Does that mean that this is true for all students everywhere.  If you are who I think you are, you are maybe 19 years old. Live a little, pay some taxes, have some kids, and put your kids through public school.You will then see the reality of what I speak. [/quote]
That's the point:  you can't list 5 things and say with any authority that  "these are the sources of depression."  I'm well aware of a handful of depressed teens. I'd stay #1-5 are not the main problems for any of them. [/quote]

I didn't say these are the sources of depression. I said that these are the people who are stating and reinforcing that a high-stress environment at Langley exists. [/quote]
So high school can be stressful?  Ok, then, sure I agree too. I don't know who would disagree with that. [/quote]
