Perhaps the public school education system is partially to blame. All the testing and avoidance of dealing with bullying. Even the buildings themselves often look like prisons. I sometimes look at the police blotter news for my hood and was shocked to see that three suicides have occurred at the nearby middle school in the past six months. Yet it was never mentioned in the news as a cluster event. Makes me wonder though why a young person would want to kill themselves at their school? Or kill others there?What is it that has changed in our mainstream, middle class culture over the last twenty years or so that the educational outliers seem to have avoided?
