Minorities and Suicide

Well I believe that she had a mental battle. I still feel guilty because we shared a room together I should have known. If I was standing right in front of her before she did that I might have talked her out of it maybe maybe not, but if I did not say anything I would feel bad because I didn't even try. If my sister needed help I would try to at least talk to her before it got to that stge and if I see she needs more help than I could give her I will help her see someone.

Depression does not always end in suicide. Nothing is that bad for you to kill yourself. She did though. The worst would have happend the computer would have gotten taken or you can't go out untill those grade come up. Grades are important but not enough to take your own life. If my sister needed anything or any support I would be there regardless of how much she needs.

Well, the issue is your sister may have concealed her hurt and anger toward something that you may have been too young to know. Ultimately, your folks were responsible...

And I doubt that the loss of computer usage or poor grades would have caused your sister to take her own life successfully. The computer and grades were the "straws that broke the camel's back"... These items were a convenient target used to blame what happened...
