I know this boy to a small extent. My daughter goes to school with him. She said he was an "ok" guy, and kind of "emo". After the fact, we "heard" he apparently had a myspace account and his mood was always listed as "depressed". It seems terribly sad that if this was the case [[and who knows the truth anyhow) that nobody notified the school psych. Yes, we were all 14 and everything seemed so raw and overwhelming, but we managed to get through it. We received one notification during the school year that this had happened. Afterward, nothing. No update, nothing. Which ticked me off. This only fueled the rumor mill. Regardless of what kind of kid he was or how badly he felt things were at home, his life, his family's life, his friend's life have all been changed forever. Sad. I felt terribly for his grandpa.
