I loved reading this article. You did a brilliant job in writing it in such a beautiful manner. Yes, the world is going in the wrong direction. Now and then, we hear sad news, especially about blood relationships. A couple of reasons that I believe about such crimes is the inability to regulate emotions and the need of validation.

You've written about something deeply uncomfortable with real compassion. The space between unconditional love at birth and the slow accumulation of expectations that can turn that love into pressure and pressure into fracture.

The point that hits hardest is this: no parent imagines their child as a threat, and no child imagines their protector as an adversary and yet the distance between those two truths is where real tragedies live.

Really glad it landed that way.

Writing that comes from lived truth always cuts deeper than writing that comes from observation.

Will definitely check out your Substack!

This tragedy is heartbreaking. Academic pressure should never outweigh emotional well-being. When expectations replace understanding, families fracture. Success without compassion is hollow. We must talk more about mental health, communication, and loveโ€”before ambition turns into irreversible loss.

Yes this is so true. Most of the times the children pursue their parent's dream without even knowing about their own dreams ๐Ÿฅ€

All parents should think about it and decide that more fundamental requirement for young children is not Education, but humanity.

Although I understand the reality of peer pressure, parents who see their children as an extention of their own success and the constant bearing down of the world displaying what success likes like.

It is greatly disturbing that anyone can chose this conclusion. In those final moments .. this can never be un- seen or corrected. ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ

This is so compelling. I think the why is compounded. I think for children especially adolescents we need to handle them with the same care as when we brought them home for the very first time. With the same deep love and admiration and we need to encourage them, speak to their strengths their own hopes and dreams because the lyrics to that song are so true, we shouldnโ€™t put so much pressure on children or anyone, because ultimately in my opinion it is a form of neglect. We as people are complicated and we are human we canโ€™t be so focused on the output that we neglect the needs of the person to support any motivation for output. We should be willing to nurture, raise, and encourage at every stage of life for our children.

Anyone reading this. Hold your kids today, love them and remind them they are loved, they are perfect just the way they are, because thatโ€™s whatโ€™s really important.

Adolescents feel so deeply, itโ€™s all or nothing with them and if not truly loved and handled carefully, I truly believe an unfortunate crime such as this one can happen to or with anyone. This is very sad.

Thanks for sharing this article and story. Deep thinking.
