i feel worst for his dad he had to deal with his brother killing himself and then his son was talking about suicide from such an early age and went through with it.

Oh god... He was only a year older than me.,,

@ghost845 you obviously don't know what it's like to have depression. I've had 3 years of depression and that involves my inability to wake up, eat, and do anything.

He had bipolar depression, which includes random bouts of overwhelming and extreme depression that seem almost too painful to handle.

He was sick. How dare you blame his parents for something that he was born with. For you to want to punish them is like wanting to punish homosexuals, or cancer patients. Shame on you.

@ghost845 I hope you're not planning on having children.

Incredibly tactful, much-needed documentary. It's a complex, though prevalent topic: suicide is on the increase; youth suicide is particularly alarming when you look at the statistics. Because, in this case, Evan displayed impulsive behaviour (wanting to jump from great heights), my only quibble is that his bedroom had an unlocked window with access to a building shaft: had it been locked (which it should have, considering it had no view), maybe Evan could have been saved. Hard to know. R.I.P

@ghost845 I assume your trying to be funny because your level of stupidity is almost pitiful. Hitting the child would only make him hate his parents, maybe even hurt them. This child had mental disorder he was born with idiot, how bout you go smack the cancer of a terminally ill 4 year old.

i saw this movie.....and i thought to myself.........the bparents are complete fuck ups!!!! Complete failures. Blame urslf for his problems. Since little this kid got away with tantrums and shit. and sooo creating a world where he dominates his parents. A good ass whopping when he had his "crazy talk ." would have helped!

[Storywithin]

HE WAS AT POINT OF NO RETURN IN HIS MIND IT WAS OK TO GO TO US IT WAS A TRAGEDY BUT TO HIM IT WAS FINAL PEACE.

[JamesTKirkCobain]

What I got from this movie is how fucked up the people around this kid were. All they kept planting in his head was fear fear fear. He wasn't mentally ill, they were. They fell into the trap that the prescription drug cabals try every second of every day to get people into to maximize profits. Tell me I am wrong then watch it again. Just think: These drugs are advertised everywhere, TV, radio, magazines, newspapers, buses, taxis, yet they kill 100s of thousands every year yet weed is illegal..
