I think suicide runs rampant among teens simply because of too much pressure that the world issues on us. Unfortunately, children can't find a bold statement to send to adults in particular, so we take our own lives in the process and strangely 1.6 in 100,000 teens between the ages of 10-14 and 9.5 teens in 100,000 commit suicide. Ultimately, in the United States, it is the 11th top cause of death in the U.S. So, I hope that people evaluate the pressure they put on teens, and teens lay off of all these overwhelming pressures; that way we all can lower or even eliminate suicide.
