Do people have the right... - 09-24-2008, 04:49 PM

Countless times, I've heard teens tell me; "My life is so shit."

After talking them further, I ask them why and I get a "Because life, school, lessons, people are shit." This, as everyone knows, are the symptom's of the "brat" syndrome that lurks in most teens that age. We've had multiple 'suicides' because brats think their life is really THAT bad.

Now, again, I hear countless adults who say "I'm in debt/I've lost someone close, so I'm depressed" or something along those lines.

Now here are the questions.

---

1: Do kids have the right to commit suicide for such problems when we have people being raped, abused, dieing of starvation, or have some sort of lethal disease who still strive to survive?

2: Do adults really have the right to be depressed for long periods of time or (even at all) over such problems, when we have people being raped, abused, dieing of starvation, or have some sort of lethal disease who still strive to survive?

Keep it calm please, and try not to argue. Won't happen I know, but try not to.
