No we NEED to discuss it, why its happening and remove the stigma from mental illness (likely cause). As someone whose own child went through a very depressive state and had to skip a semester of college, I feel very strongly about this.

Of course it is tragic and it is natural for people to talk about it, it does not meant hey are not being sensitive to the situation. It is a natural curiosity particularly for parents to wonder why.
