Suicide rates for Black children are now at a record breaking high - surpassing other races

[David_TheMan]

Too many blacks embracing the shyt that white america has, drugs, poor attitudes being developed early (thinking the world owes you something), not enough mental and internal strength being put in the kids today.

Just look at this site alone, people out here glorifying and praising drug culture, shyt that just wasn't done in my day coming up.

In a way though this might be a good thing, if the strong move forward and the weak keep taking themselves out, we might have a better future

Ita called Post traumatic slave syndrome. Physically your free but mentally your still trapped on the plantation. This rhetoric that we live in a post racial society these new blacks like to spew is only setting children up for failure and disappointment. Be real with the kids and tell them the truth about black history.

As usual with these little stories, the headline is misleading as fukk.

It's only children aged 5-11 and its under 3 kids per million who commit suicide

With that said, 1 is too many and I support any effort to address mental health in kids.

We just don't need sensational headlines to do so

 

[MeachTheMonster]

And it amazes me how many of you just take the headline at face value and don't even take a moment to click on the story and get full context before commenting

It's 100% because of these new age, p*ssy ass, liberal tumblr nikkas, starting to normalize suicide because the white people they aspired to be like do it.

We're normalizing suicide in the black community, when traditionally suicide was one of the most shameful things a nikkas could commit.

Too many liberal parents raising weak children, and I personally don't believe black people on a whole have mental health issues

A combination of broken families, crime filled neighborhoods, being shut out of the economy, terrible schools, and a culture where young black boys are expected to be "hard" and suppress any normal human emotions.

Throw in can't deal with your women too.

Literally ALL of that has been present for the last 40 years or so, so why the spike now?

because we've become pussifieed over the years, shyt not even slaves were on the "commit that" watch

At the same time, there is a dangerously low number of black psychologists.

And way too many preachers and motivational speakers....

We need people who believe in treating depression,etc, holistically not just through positive thinking and faith.

Nah u pieces of shyt see an article that says black children are killing themselves at a higher rate and your only response is "these pussies are out of touch with the world" and y'all wonder why they offing themselves.

A black man doesn't have the time or convenience to be weak. Idc, man up...

 

[NoChillJones]

If you think about the social conditioning they are purposely being fed....it almost makes sense.

Putting young children in sports is a great way to strengthen their mentality.
