    The girl is not alive to say anything on this case. Do you think she will commit suicide just on a advise of grand mother on not speaking to her friends?.

    this is just the result of our youth's thought process. I feel we are far away on this issue and unless something real difference is brought in, I see our youth are already on wrong path. Some times, parents will be finding it difficult to manage. For example, in the above case, there must be definitely a reason for herGrand ma to stop her from doing that. Just because her grand mother stopped her... it's not justifiable that she took this extreme step... this is a clear evidence which direction our youth is going ...

    I agree with you Rita. But now a days youth are not as we were those days, fear of parents , grand parents and all. There are so many instances now a days. Couple of weeks back 3 young girls or 6th standard walked away from home catching a bus to some outstation (Hubli) just with a reason that they had less marks in their exams and they were scared that parents will scold them. Don't you think it's too small reason to take sucha drastic step of leaving family , parents , their home town and catching a bus to Bubli ... Lot of suicide cases in and around Mangalore, especially by youth for reasons which are very silly. Remember a girl committed suicide when her mother rejected to give her a huge amount she was asking for... she was asking 2500 rupees for her drugs. If mother gives themoney she will go anybuy drugs. Knowing this mother said NO. this girl ( matured young girl ) went inside the room and hanged herself... remember the instance... So, I mentioned that it's very sensitive situation...
