True, but the article is not focusing on information to correct mistaken ideas, but on the rise of a terrible fad among teens in several small communities. The article tells how some kids think it is 'cool', that those who have followed receive attention after they are gone in the form of websites, and that it is easier to discuss and deal with feelings on social websites instead of with family members or mental health professionals. I am just worried that a youth viewing such a news article might receive the wrong impression. I do agree with you, but I still have criticism with this article specifically. They do not even give information on hot-lines, websites, or anonymous groups to help those who need/want help.
