Freelance writer Lupie Riley WHY THE HIGH PERCENTAGE IN SUICIDE'S ?
Thought:  I don't have the ABC's after my name or qualify as a counselor.  I'm just a grandmother who is very concerned for her grandchildren and their future.  During my 77 years I've done extensive research on suicide and it's root cause.  Listed here are some of the answers I've come up with using common sense as my directive.

!.  Dysfunctional homes where these children have two or three different mom's and dad's in stages.
2.  Because of the high numbers of divorce in our nation children are raised in most homes in an environment with no securities.
3.  The push of evolution in our schools and colleges leaves these young people with "is this all there is...the end"...no HOPE in a better life hereafter that faith in God would give them.
4.  Lack of spiritual and moral teaching in the home.  God has been thrown out in most area's of their life
5.  The lunatic medical push to diagnose our children with ADHD and put them on suicidal medications.  Look up some of these medications and most will have the side effects of suicide.
6.  Instead of counselors and the medical profession looking at the real root cause of our children's anxieties and restlessness they prescribe drugs.  Some of these problems would  be a stressful home life, video games that don't allow the child any down time, violent movies, a saturation of sexual content, diet, no work ethics for them to feel good about themselves and ADHD drugs in which any one of these things is a time bomb for our youth  leaving them with no HOPE for a better future which again is found in a relationship with the person of Jesus.Christ.
  7.  As for our military and the high rate of suicides what about the depression drugs that the doctors prescribe like candy to those who suffer from PTSD or have been automatically diagnosed with when they return from oversea's duty?  Do we realize these are the trained fighters that will defend us from the enemy?  If their diagnosed with a mental disability their guns will automatically be taken from them in the near future.  AMERICA WAKE UP! The enemy is slowly destroying our defenders. If we persist in this downhill slide someday soon our Creator God will say enough is enough and this nation will come to a destructive end.  The time to change our ways is NOW.  Put God back in the picture so His blessings can continue upon this great nation.  May God BLESS AMERICA.

Prayer: Father God, there are three things I pray for my grandchildren as I lift them all up to you. Give them DECERNMENT (to be able to recognize the Devil) POWER to resist his temptations and WISDOM to always make good decision for themselves. Amen
