Obviously there was an underlying mental health problem or other issues. I have to agree with the statement that a "normal" teenager would not kill themselves after a tv show.

what bothers me is the idea that "something else" is always the cause. we live in a world where no one accepts responsibility anymore for anything.
of course its horrible that the girl died. but it really irks me to read headlines all day long like "8 yr old stabs sister in the face 27 times over pokemon card"... and everyone reflexively gasps in horror at how something could happen over something so silly, when there is clearly something bigger going on with the child/children and parents.
a 16yr old child doesn't wake up one day and see a bad tv show and decide to off themselves.
C_U_Next_Tuesday can call me an idiot because i'm not a parent....
... i'll simply rely on the obvious fact that 6 1/2 billion other people in the world DIDN'T kill themselves because of a tv show or any concerns relating to the partical collider
