http://www.chillicothegazette.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080617/OPINION03/806170332/1014/OPINIONI am writing to let you know about teenage suicide and what we can do to prevent it as much as possible.
Teen suicide is when a teen kills himself or herself for reasons such as stress, fighting or pressure. Teens usually kill themselves because of pressure to get good grades, divorcing parents, trouble with school or failing a recent test or exam. Also, teen suicide is often caused by being teased by others. You could be teased about what color your skin is, what religion you believe in, what race you are, if you're gay, lesbian, bisexual or transsexual.
