Sometimes I wonder who has a harder time coping with their emotions: teens or elders. It probably depends way more in the individual but it seems age doesn’t necessarily mean maturity if elders are robbing stores at gunpoint. I guess some elderly people feel pushed aside due to their deteriorating physiology and are lonely while emotional tempered teens are coming to grips with relationships, grades, and other issues and also feel equally misunderstood by those around them. So both opt for suicide at times to end the recurring frustration. The elders get release from feeling abused by the young and the young get relief from feeling harrassed by the old.
