[QUOTE="bball, post: 1351418, member: 23752"] I appreciate you not poking too hard fence. Guess all I'm trying to say is that usually, when someone achieves suicide, there is more to it than just the trigger event. I never said it was OK either. I'm forced to deal with these things on a fairly regular basis; grown men, woman and children. It sucks. I don't get the luxury of dismissing it and the science of why it happens. It's very real. Some of these people are very tortured. I couldn't imagine living in a world where nothing brings happiness or joy. Not my wife, children, friends...nothing. I'm a simple fella who enjoys the simple things in life- a good woman's love, a cold beer, tasty BBQ, even hard work I find enjoyable. These folks don't get that pleasure- from anything. Complete and utter hopelessness and despair. You're right fence, the topic was a fella who ended it all reportedly over financial loss. I don't know his history or anymore about it, but I suspect there are many more factors (that he may have been kept hidden from his own family). As far as teaching your own, well, that's between you and your own. No one is telling you what to teach. Certainly not me. Every man renders accounting for himself and i got my hands full with me and mine. [/QUOTE]
