I dont even know where to go here. We need to talk to our students and young people. This hurts me to the core. There is no need for young people to take their own lives. Sorry , this is just rambling but damn suicide is so preventable. just simply engage with people. say hi, ask someone how they are doing, just listen.
This is so heart-breaking. I just got the alert and my heart sunk.
Wasn't he very close friends with Wandale if I remember correctly? I have a couple kids his age and being around their friends - the depression and anxiety this generation faces is all too real.
RIP Rondale. I never knew you but I am so sad for the pain you felt.

Tuco, I agree to what you are saying. However, I have seen too many where there were signs of depression but then it seems to take a very sad turn to self destruction very quickly. A lady who taught for me had a son who was very outgoing and lived on the west coast. She had just spoken with him and everything was good, she suspected nothing and apparently neither did his closest friends. The flip side is the people left behind who knew the person feel responsible for not seeing what was going on. I am glad to be retired from the education business. Schools can't hire enough counselors to deal with all of the problems they see each day. You just never know which ones are going to end up this tragic.
It really is amazing how much we rely on teachers/counselors for our kids. Thank god we have people that not only want to do those jobs but that do it with a smile and take on so much responsibility.
