Support your children, even if you disagree with them!
I had a friend decide to end his life early, because he was going through rough times.
He had been in and out of school over the past 2 years, but made a commitment to keep with it last December. He was pretty close to finishing, IIRC just 3 or 4 months until he had all of his certifications. About a month ago, him and his GF broke up, and things because rough. He started to not go to class, and his parents were getting angry that he wasn't going to class. He didn't want the support from the friends group, and eventually went to seek support from his parents. They were pretty upset that he had stopped going to school, so they turned him away.
Fast forward to last Thursday, we received word that he decided the end his life early.
Such a nice guy too - always had a smile on his face. Loved all things motorized - one of the guys that got me hooked on bikes...
RIP buddy.
Hate to say it - but I wonder what his obit will say.
