I agree. I think when you are able to examine the circumstances, you may find enough to make suicide acceptable in some cases.Thanks Truth Prevails for response to my posts, and feel free to split them however you like - your replies are always logical.
Thanks to everyone else here as well - lots of good thoughts and theories while we keep this thread alive.
This is a strange case. More so because of the other women. We've raised some good questions that a family member might ask LE about, though family being here is a sensitive issue. Trying to picture how I would feel if it were my son, say....
He a grown man and although we are as close as can be, he leads a very private life and if LE came to me and said he committed suicide, I think I might accept it since I know so little about his private life, but since I have no reason to believe he is having any problems (just the opposite, he'd doing very well, is very content) I'd be asking all kinds of questions of LE... I'd want to see things first hand as well, as painful as that would be...
Often times when people are preparing themselves for suicide, they will drop a hint to one friend in this group; and one friend in another group; and maybe even to a third friend in yet another group. They can be pretty cagey--making sure that none of these friends know each other; thus, making it difficult for any one friend to realize the danger.
When you look back though--even when it is too late--you can see the trouble brewing.
I'm beginning to sound like a broken record, but I don't see any trouble in Gen's life that would fit the statistics for prerequisites to suicide.
I don't see it being accidental either--her path was a safe distance from the embankment. She wanted to get home and get her chores done. What would make her suddenly decide to veer off the path?
It didn't sound preachy to me, Mr. Steve.Re-reading my above ^^ I would delete where the part about my son and what I would do as it's too preachy...
I think you put some thought into that, and I thank you for it.
