I'm wrought with indecision. I don't know whether to be happy for you because you had such a blast in HS or sad because You Miss the old days. :tongue:

Really sad.

Terrible... While I can understand why some people don't see a way "out" and figure this is the best answer, I don't understand why it's usually the good people who do it... the people who can be a positive influence, who can DO something and enjoy things in life.
Ah. And now her life is wasted and her family and friends are all grieving.
I don't feel bad at all because she chose that way out.

I feel bad for her loved ones because like you said, they're grieving. Sadly, this girl did not fully grasp the depths of the selfishness that is suicide.

Poor girl, RIP
True. This girl probably didn't realise what questions which are now going through her families mind.
And she's hot. Too bad she couldn't of waited three more years to join FreeOnes and realize she wasn't alone in the world! Right?
that is sucks. how did she get the handgun?

Its sad because really she probably just needed someone to give her a good slap across the back of the head and tell her to get her head right. Alot of parents cannot relate to their kids and just assume because they are not trouble makers then everything is good.
Communication is the key!

Hello Sexy girl how your Toes doing?
Sad story and may she R.I.P. that said, she prolly didn't see any hope in her future and suicide ends all ones problems, but leaves so much pain and suffering for everyone that cared about her or even people who knew her. I went through some very tough years myself, I had loaded guns to my head, I thought about every way I could imagine to kill myself, so I've though about all kinds of ways to do the deed, but in the end, everytime I decided that's what I was gonna do, or the way I gonna end it, I always thought about my mom and my brothers and sister, every single time, and I decided it wasn't fair to them for me too be selfish and take the easy way out.
I sympathize with that girl and I know her family, friends and anybody and everybody that knew her are devastated. Terrible and unfortunate, yet as a society we've come to numb ourselves with situations like these, evident with some of the responses from other members here @ FO's. I don't blame anybody for the way they feel about things or they way think about shit that happens, everybody has a threshold for pain and suffering, some have a very high tolerance and some have very low tolerance..
Everybody deals with there pain in different ways and some have better resources or outlets for help, some have parents or friends that they could go too or saw what was happening and sought help, while others have NO form of help and it just keeps tugging @ ones soul too end it all and that's how we get these tragic outcomes. :2 cents: once again R.I.P. too Meagan Allen may she find everlasting happiness where her soul rests.. :angels:

I wonder if the young miss had two loving parents in the home, parents that she would sit down and eat dinner with 5 - 6 nights a week . . .(I doubt it). . . are there still such households like this anywhere in the world (probably not as the concept of the conventional nuclear family is mocked and chided with regularity) or am I simply not in tune with the progressive times of the day? (it's a downhill spiral I'm afraid.).
RIP little girl

I blame the 'education' system. It's a soul destroyer.
The more I think about this, the more I'm having a hard time finding sympathy for this girl. Like I said before, it seems like we're talking about a girl that simply could not grasp the concepts of social life as a teen and suicide. It also seems that teens, now more than ever, are in a great state of desperation for special attention and acceptance regardless of any and every circumstance. This young girl is no exception. Fact is: She TOLD people she was gonna do this, and the didn't take her seriously. She wanted attention. She told of an extreme act, to which others thought was for the attention. She committed the act.
Now, could some other factors like home life or negative individual moments have contributed to this? Of course, but that's everyone. Society has given teens this idea that everyone DESERVES to be accepted and appreciated, but that's not reality. It never will be, especially in high school. If you're not athletic, you won't make an athletic team. You go home and mold yourself into an athlete... you don't kill yourself because you weren't accepted. If you don't fit in with the cheerleaders, you just don't, and not everyone does. You don't DESERVE that just because. I'd like to say that most of here understood that nobody is owed anything. Not love. Not respect. Not acceptance.
...and we found our way to live past it.

She deserves sympathy. Apparently she was a young girl in need of help who attempted to reach out for it the only way she could process and it didn't come.
That's without even knowing what could have driven her to this desperation.
Did it ever occur to anybody that maybe theres a reason nobody responded to her? I mean, really. How far did she go to fix the issues other than off herself? What avenues did she explore besides giving up on everything? Like I said before, the outcome you seek is mostly up to you. Why should I feel sorry for someone who so very selfishly disregarded the feelings of loved ones and took her own life?
Your post is exactly to my point. Teens feel like they DESERVE everything because people tell them they do. You say she DESERVES sympathy, and that is most likely how she felt when she was living. She doesn't, and she didn't get it. Selfishness gets no sympathy. How serious were her issues that she deserved sympathy?
Was she terminally ill?
Was she beaten and raped consistently?
Was she poor and starving?
No. She had a Facebook page, a home, friends, and a family to which she took for granted. Most importantly she had a future. A future which she forfeited. I refuse to give her the sympathy that she wants but DOES NOT DESERVE. She's young, cute, and white (I SAID IT!) from an everyday background so she should get sympathy, right? Where was the sympathy for Girl X?
Why don't you know about Girl X? Why wasn't this national? Google it: Girl X. She deserves sympathy.
Sounds like we are just going to disagree here.
I don't know any of the particulars with the girl other than she felt for some reason her life wasn't worth living anymore. Who knows what that perspective stemmed from...she could have been victimized in some way...I personally haven't followed the story enough to know.
But most certainly she was suffering from some psychosis even if mere acute depression.
Again, I haven't followed the story but apparently she tried to reach out or alert others to what her plans were and she wasn't taken seriously.
Everyone is different and while some have coping mechanisms others may not...some people have a better perspective on things than others...
There are instances for example in this economy where some have had nice homes, fancy cars, nice bank accts. et al, and lost them..then proceeded to kill themselves and their entire families. Other people in that same situation could look at it as they've had a very good run, they happened upon a stumble but those are just things. They got them before and they'll get them again.:dunno:
Point being there are some people who aren't able to put some things in proper perspective. Whatever this girl was going through, in the minor case she needed someone to hear her problems then convey to her how broad a lifetime is and how small this handful of experience is in that.
No one responded to her signals and she's done something she won't have a chance to fix, regret nor look upon happily as a distant memory one day. She deserves sympathy IMO but she's not around to be told it now.
