Teen Suicide #1

This article was about facts and statistics about teenage suicide here are the information that i found in the article. There were some interesting facts about it, so here they are.

Kids get thoughts of suicide are divorced parents, rejected from friends, depressed, and death of someone important. Teen females are likely to commit suicide then males but older males are more likely to commit suicide then females. Here are some numbers on teen suicide: More than 13 of 100,00 teens from 15-24 committed suicide in 1990. Teen suicides have tripled the amount since 1970.

I thought what struck me was how many teens it bounced up from in the last 30 years, that is just really shocking to me.It is scary how many teens die in a year that have committed suicide.
