All the time, we could hear the train stopping for hours ... for another suicide. I know a lot of rich people who sent their kids to the fanciest private schools. My friends are legitimately smart, but their kids ... have serious problems. In hindsight, they might have done better to go to a comprehensive public school with "average" kids.

I grew up low middle income in Santa Cruz and can't recall a single suicide in my high school of 2000 kids. Why kill yourself when you can go surfing?
