That was a lovely story, but since I have a friend whose daughter committed suicide a few months ago, your conclusion that children who are loved don't commit suicide is too presumptive. It is also dangerous in that it can lead to guilt in the minds of their parents who naturally already feel they soulda, woulda, coulda done something to prevent it. Generalizations based on one personal experience not conclusive, nor what someone in leadership should be teaching.
