Teen suicide has never been higher! Why? Divorce, fighting, and a loss of faith in Jesus is the reason!

parents are lost so they think yoga, and "finding themselves" will help but it has increased suicide and confusion in kids! Parents need to take kids to church and read the Bible. Kids need hope in Jesus! The LGBTQ movement has increased suicide!
Suicides jumped 29% among adolescents ages 15 to 19 over the previous decade, according to a report released Wednesday.

[quote]Adolescent suicides rose from 8.4 per 100,000 during the 2012-2014 timeframe to 10.8 deaths per 100,000 in 2018-2020, according to the new edition of America's Health Rankings Health of Women and Children Reportopens in a new tab or window from the United Health Foundation. Adolescent suicides also rose significantly in 10 states. The report captures 121 health measures based on the most recently available public health data from 30 different sources.[/quote]

Suicide is high among transgender

@MrBrownstone Yes, it is and believing in a gawd or not is definitely not the reason for that happening. Bullying and outright hatred of them by most religious groups, often including their own Parents sure doesn't help with that.

@spjennifer No. Most regret changing gender and commit suicide.

@MrBrownstone This is the ultimate problem. Very high suicide rate among transgenders... even post-surgery.
spjennifer · 56-60, T
@MrBrownstone You are either seriously misinformed or are being wilfully ignorant, most adolescents and teens have NOT undergone reassignment surgery and therefor have nothing to "regret", there is also NO State in the Union where adolescent or even teen SRS is legal. Yes, some do commit suicide because they are not supported and/or are being bullied, often by family.

@spjennifer I can say the same about you.
spjennifer · 56-60, T
@MrBrownstone I'm willing to bet you've never even spoken to a trans youth, let alone been the same room with one???
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@spjennifer Neither have you.

@MrBrownstone One of my Grand Nieces is a 19 year old TG and you didn't look at my profile did you?
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@spjennifer I guess because it’s online it must be true
Carazaa · F
@spjennifer
I couldn't find anything about your niece on your profile! Very sorry if there was a tragedy in your family! 🥺

By the way, why are you disrespecting God, and spelling it Gawd?
spjennifer · 56-60, T
@Carazaa I will never post anything online which could bring possible harm to a member of my family. Her being TG, isn't a "tragedy", she's actually a blessing to me and to others as she has more courage than most people I've ever met. How i choose to pronounce some entity I don't believe in is my choice, it's not intentionally disrespectful, nor respectful in any fashion. I write buybull too as I believe it's a story of fiction and that religious folk are told to buy into the story. If that offends you, then I'm sorry but it's still not going to change what i believe or don't believe in...
