Suicide and Children


Its always a tragedy when someone dies but when someone takes their own life it effects so many people. In this article it follows a woman who's mother killed herself and her journey of discovery and recovery. This woman being a psychologist herself she self examines herself to discover how to help children through a parents suicide. You can't really tell a child how to deal with a suicide because there is really no good way to deal with it, its that lack of communication between an adult and a child that leads to a child's depression. Children automatically feel like they are to be blamed when a parent commits suicide. Its a very sad but interesting article.
