It seems everyone agrees "one is too many". BUT ... is it?
What if a particular strategy for raising kids INCREASES the risk of suicide slightly, but for the VAST majority it improves mental health for their lifetime? Less depression, less anxiety, and maybe even less risk of suicide later. If we are talking 1 in 10,000, or 1 in 100,000 ... is it worth it?
Now I know it's not really an either/or situation and different approaches can be used for different people. But life is full of risk, and sometimes MORE risk leads to better outcomes generally even if it is detrimental in specific instances.
— edit --: I've got some very close youth to me struggling and decisions by parents about what they think is best for their kids can be extremely difficult to decide. I'm trying to think through if the guilt parents feel over suicide (or attempts) is justified, or if they should maybe feel less guilty.
