proud of your son and truly grateful for the young men and women who are willing to serve. It is past time the military stops treating these national heroes as commodities.

14 deaths this year, 7 suicides. 34% of students suffering from depression -- CrystalCoveHokie Apr 27, 2023 at 07:04 PM ET

What's changed so much to prompt this seemingly meteoric rise in suicide?-> -- HOKIERIT Apr 28, 2023 at 07:59 PM ET

Have you anything about this ? Curious. Are things harder today? Are kids -- DrMaroon Apr 27, 2023 at 09:51 PM ET

I wonder myself...Maybe you've hit on something** -- HOKIERIT Apr 28, 2023 at 08:00 PM ET

Pure guesswork here, but I do think an issue young people have -- Tafkam Hokie Apr 28, 2023 at 08:46 AM ET

I tend to agree. -- Atlee Hokie Apr 28, 2023 at 08:40 PM ET

I think psychologists believe 1 person committing suicide subconsciously -- HokieDan95 Apr 27, 2023 at 05:07 PM ET

HokieDan95 • 04/27/23 05:07 PM ET

That's pretty plausible. I've done some research on mob mentality -- Tafkam Hokie Apr 28, 2023 at 09:01 AM ET

There was a famous case back in the 60's where a woman was getting beaten -- HokieDan95 Apr 28, 2023 at 01:00 PM ET

I think my son rejected VT due to the shooting ** -- TomTurkey Apr 27, 2023 at 06:57 PM ET

Neither would be likely to move the needle for me -- Pylons Apr 27, 2023 at 05:51 PM ET
