Also don't know why a person would tape themselves committing suicide - they probably didn't realize people would actually make fun and critique it. Being online seems to reveal the bowels of society, we normally would see or hear. I bet these people seem like the normal Joe and Jane IRL. Its really very sad and scary. Teaching empathy starts very young and I'm happy I've instilled this in my children.

Oh, I can very well see why someone would like to video tape their suicide. I think one of the allures to suicide isn't just to 'end it all' but to 'prove your pain.' Nothing proves the extent of your pain to the people who know you and the rest of the world as showing them what you would do just to end it.
I believe it's the mentality involved in ridiculing suicide that drives depressed individuals to 'prove' what they've been through in a way they couldn't do alive.
I'm happy you're teaching your children to be empathetic!
