themselves one year in advance. Some parents think that just because they provide their children with cars, clothes and money means that they take good care of them, when in actuality money is not the root of their evil doings. One of the boys drove a new BMW and the other was no where near the lower class. Parents need to know and understand their children as well as they can and guide them in learning how to make the right decisions in life so that they can grow up to be functional adults.Being a teenager, stresses and the struggles that we sometimes seem unbearable and unfixable. I know that this recent year was one of the hardest for me. I had many changes occur in my life that I could not deal with it. I felt like I had nobody there to help me. Due to this I was definitely in a depression needed some sort of help. Luckily, I was not that bad off, my true friends showed me why I am here, and why there is no way I would ever leave. It is a horrible experience to go through, you feel alone and nobody understands you. I was lucky to have my family and friends, although I do not always sit there and talk about what is bothering me. I know that if I needed them they would be there for me no matter what obstacle I am facing or was about to face. Now I know that if I felt that horrible and depressed for what was going on in my life I can only imagine how many other teens are out their that feel the same or even worse than I did. I am sure many of the teenagers in the world do not have someone that could notice a problem and give the help needed.As a society, we need to do something about teen suicides and education is the beginning. . I now know how to recognize the symptoms, why people choose to die over a problem, and how to get a friend help. If the knowledge I have acquired through my observations can help but only one person, then that proves that the more you know if a direct result of the power in education....
