A child of 18 years of age?...
> Especially in a society in which 3/4 of the people believe that there is a "better life" after death.
What a stupid remark.

- fooker 9y agoWhy is that a stupid remark? That is something systematically taught by people holding positions of authority over children (in most cases both parents and school teachers). In light of that, it is not that surprising so many people young see suicide a respite.
