just because you went and got some sort of college degree does not mean that you are more of an expert in some area than some other person who did not obtain said degree. Having seen, by first hand direct experience, that letters after a persons name does not make them smarter than another person who doesn't, assures me that you most likely know little more than I do about any particular given subject. Be that as it may, analog has it right insofar as I do owe you an apology for the moron comment. While you certainly aren't a moron, you aren't the all knowing, all seeing person you say you are when it comes to the human psyche....at least in this issue.
I personally think you are dead wrong in the belief that those 3 supposed adults did not have a direct effect on this teenage girls suicide. They had more responsibility than most, considering that it was their words and actions alone that contributed to an already emotionally troubled childs instability. If that can't be seen by you, then I dare say that you should at least rethink some of your ideology in human behavior.
