11 year old hangs self because mother stopped her from watching Big Brother

In general, I would imagine most of the people reading this thread have no intention of committing suicide. In fact I would imagine most people would say they would never commit suicide. Do you think someone who has said that they would never commit suicide has ever committed suicide later in life? Life can be great, but life can become difficult, if things become difficult for some of the people who have posted here I hope that their friends are a little more sympathetic than they appear to be.

It has absolutely nothing to do with Big Brother in my opinion, so you can't blame it on that (no matter how much you hate it ). I think the girl must've been very aware of how fragile human life is but didn't realise what the consequences were. I wouldn't say it's a waste of life like many of you have said, this is a real reminder of the reality of things and can help us to be aware of others.

thats terrible, absolutely horrible.
Worst thing is, her mothers probably going to blame it on herself.

I think perhaps something that we might agree on is that the Daily Mail's propensity for reducing the content to fit in gaudier headlines means that we shouldn't necessarily rely on them for thorough and accurate reportage?

in other news daily mail sensationalises headlines to sell newspapers.. tumbleweed rolls and on page 14 you can get £25 off a genuine crockery set by collecting only 14 tokens and selling you soul to the devil but that's national media for you.

what the hell is wrong with kids nowadays?

Nothing to live for, nothing to aim for. Go to school, go to uni, have huge debts for life, end up in sh!tty job, why bother?
