I've heard about these suicide sites, I saw a documentary on one before I joined KMC and was searching for them when I found KMC {don't know how that happened}... but anyway, part of me agrees that they are dangerous, but on the other hand they can also be helpful to suicidal people. Being able to talk about your issues with other like-minded people and not being judged for it can only be beneficial. Suicidal people don't get the help that they need from our society as suicide is frowned upon and then usually dismissed, so do you think it's any wonder people who want to die actually hunt down other people with the same problems? I think if our society gave more time to listen and help, then suicidal people wouldn't need to seek out others like themselves.
But I really feel for the parents, from their viewpoint it's the site that caused the suicide, when really their child had all of the issues to begin with, and the site probably helped them either come to terms with their problems or at least die in a quick and painless fashion. It's unfortunate, but there simply aren't enough places or people out there who are willing to show compassion or consideration to people with suicidal tendencies. Until this problem with society in general is sorted, these websites will always have a place.
