This story begins with a suicide pact between 4 teenager,As the reporter starts to try and understand why,she see's a trend of teen's who don't fit in, towns with nothing for teen's to do.It struck home with me because in my town after you turn 16 you'r kid's have little to do.No place to hang out movies to expense and outgrown the skating rink.I wish I would have read this before my kids were grown,I think it reflects alot of town's.
