i also felt very sad when i read it earlier today and wish she had someone to talk before committing suicide. We need to start talking to our young ones more often to avoid such in the future. |

Usually when a child does something as traumatic as this it is because they are being bullied or abused. There should be a full investigation and if necessary prosecutions.
Teenage suicides are quite common in the UK. The pressures of life, bullying, abuse, organic depression, eating disorders, etc BUT it is still very unusually for a CHILD to commit suicide (under 13).
Very sad. |

May her soul rest in peace, my condolence to the family....... I wonder what kind of problems would force a 10-year-old kid to suicide. |

A very, very sad incident. May her little soul rest in eternal peace.
Really, it is absolutely unusual for a child of 10 to commit suicide. I've never heard of that. There should be an investigation. |

We now need child psychiatrists more than before.The modern life presents with so many pressures for the young ones,that red flag signs passes us unnoticed till we get such scenarios.I agree that abuse, in its all forms, will be leading the list for such a reason and most of the time is sexually by a close family member.The society is getting rotten to the core,if not already. |
