Go look at the Young Adult books available in the school library. My 12 year old at the time brought home two books on teen suicide. One was a Whodunit about a boy who commits suicide and frames his classmates. The other was called Positive about a girl with Aids.
I opened it to a page were she is taking medication -I thought- and my child said no that's not what she is doing she is killing herself. I flipped further in the book and it describes a gang rape and the boys urinating on the victim. I asked the teacher to provide the reading list and she said she didn't have one, that the "students pick the books from the library." I asked how can she graded their reviews if she hasn't read the books herself? She wouldn't answer my question. My child said there was a list of books they chose from.
The other books she was assigned to read included abuse and teen pregnancy and exalted other cultures while demeaning her own. This exposure happened before puberty, so essentially my child was still a child.
Dig on the authors and the Sociology Department and University's that harbor them. Don't be fooled either by authors that look unassuming or attractive, its deceiving. Same goes for teachers.
In our community every year there has been a child who died of overdose/suicide for the last ten years.
Who would ever romanticize teen suicide to a child but someone who wanted your child dead.
