The report, which highlights an increasing number of suicides across different age groups in Ohio, also notes that suicides are the second leading cause of death for young people ages 15 to 34.
I hate to admit this to y'all. My son has spoken maybe 10 sentences to me since June. He'll text, but he won't speak to anyone. His mom has had him a lot less than me and he's spoken to her even less. We don't know what's going on but 9 months of online school at this point can't be helping. He's 14 btw.
Also, he spends most waking minutes around us. He doesn't run off to his room. He just won't talk.
