Suicide:is it the final solution?

I'm taking up this topic deliberately so as to put some light on to the emptiness of the thoughts in the youngsters who without any second thought take up the path of suicide. What makes them take this decision? Why is that and what is that feeling which becomes so dominant at that time which makes one end up a life which is very precious? Is everything in front of them so dark that they are unable to see a ray of hope? Why do they give up? These questions may not trouble you when you are leading a normal life, but become of utmost importance for those whose near and dear ones  have this steps.

These children become so demanding that they never develop a tendency to listen to a no from anyone. This type of attitude definitely causes problem in long run.
