This is so sad. Even though at the time it bothered the mess out of me I'm glad my mother was as nosy as she was. Not to say his parents would have necessarily noticed anything but they MAY have if they were the slightest bit as overbearing as Carol Ann was.
The only positive thing I can draw from this is that most of the class didn't know what he had done. The last time I heard of something like this happening the boy walked to the front of his class and killed himself with a handgun. The people in that class are all a bit traumatized by all of that still.
Pray over you kids and that you get the heavenly guidance ya need at all times.
