We have a total of 7 boys here from age 14 to 21. I got into a discussion with a few of them the other day about SI, because they know someone at school who does this. They just couldn't understand any reasons why someone would do this. I told them that I did it to release some of my pain. That was the first time I have discussed it with any of the kids. I have not talked about it with my 20 yr old or my 23 yr old. They never saw any injuries and never paid attention to the scars.
