Anything Goes

"Hannah was a happy 13-year-old until she became an 'emo' - part of a sinister teenage craze that romanticises death. Three months later she hanged herself. Here, her devastated mother tells other parents: No child is safe"

What a joke! ( The article, not the suicide )

If they want to run an article on dangerous subcultures they should use the space to write about the neds/chavs, the associated rise in violent youth crime, and what social factors created the situation in the first place.

I think it's a bit harsh to blame the parents for the suicide, maybe they were great parents allowing her to do her thing as a teenager instead of watching her every move. Or maybe they could have watched a little closer, but with teenagers being teenagers who the hell knows what's going on!?

Also I don't think it's fair to expect the parents to think rationally about the issue, their child has died it's not going to happen. And I'd moan about the newspaper but it being the daily mail, its not even worthy of that.

Can't not follow up with this news item:

On Saturday, hundreds of emos are planning to march on the Daily Mail's headquarters in protest at the newspaper's coverage of their subculture. The tabloid has labelled emo a "suicide cult" which glorifies self-harm and "romanticises death" - a charge vociferously denied by most emos.
