“THE COLONY — Grief counselors were on hand at a Lewisville ISD school on Friday after a fourth grade student apparently killed himself on campus yesterday.
It has been a painful day for most at Stewart’s Creek Elementary School, as they have processed what has happened.
They got a real-life lesson they had no choice but to get. That is that suicide is one of the leading causes of death for school-age children, and most vulnerable of all are boys, ages 10 to 14.
It is hard to believe that elementary school students could even contemplate suicide, let alone commit it.
But the reality of a nine-year-old boy hanging himself in the nurse’s bathroom cannot be ignored…”
My God how sad. I think I am like everyone else and just can not understand how a 9 year old child could take his own life.
