: @Kara, I don't really agree with you. It's pretty clear from the article and other's comments that he decided to do this without people 'egging' him on. From people who were actually there it's pretty clear the media is trying to spin it and make it more dramatic. It's a sad story to be sure. No one should have to resort to suicide. This is just more public because he turned on his web cam. It wasn't due to cyber bullying.

: Lesson learned about talk of suicide...no matter how much someone cries wolf...always take it seriously...if any language is uttered for planning the attempt... he/she must be hospitalized...the only thing surprising with this poor boy is the ability of the youtube and Web 2.0 era to broadcast it...his note rationalizing his act was unfortunately not.. and @Cjlacz, your point is taken...but the egging him on definitely did not help him as he completed the act...making all the difference for those who attempt or commit. Someone can plan and "finally" decide to do it, but the short last moments before acting upon the intention is a hinge moment that takes tremendous effort for whatever the outcome. Why do you think we "talk down" jumpers if we didn't know someone can be persuaded out of it.Philippians Chapter 1 21 Life to me, of course, is Christ, but then death would be a positive gain. 22 On the other hand again, if to be alive in the body gives me an opportunity for fruitful work, I do not know which I should choose. 23 I am caught in this dilemma: I want to be gone and to be with Christ, and this is by far the stronger desire- 24 and yet for your sake to stay alive in this body is a more urgent need. 25 This much I know for certain, that I shall stay and stand by you all, to encourage your advance and your joy in the faith, Reading and understanding these verses is the maturity I've earned. 27

: Interesting. I know here at my school many professors do not see your questions/concerns through email as legit unless they are sent through a school source (school e-mail); they are afraid they are spam. Most young kids create immature and embarrassing e-mail names ("stud", "hot", "baby"). In this case, they (probably) will create a new one when they start college if the school doesn't give them one. I know Google runs our school e-mail now and it great. I just can't imagine eliminating the school e-mail addresses altogether verification reasons.
