Dear Parents,

It is unthinkable to have to speak to our children about suicide, yet current professional guidelines suggest these conversations are preventative. Suicide is an uncomfortable subject to broach. I hope this article will help you bridge the divide to open up conversations with your daughters. The first step in prevention is knowing that difficult discussions are not taboo.

I am always available and welcome your call.
