The alternatives at that age maybe aren't so great. And because they have friends, that's important. Brandon had a bunch of friends, so that's good. He had a social life, but he perceived that he was very lonely. He perceived that he didn't have friends. So that was an important question for the clinicians involved. Why is he seeing himself with such acute, low self-esteem?

Why are we thinking he might be suicidal? The signs of that, some changes in his behavior, dropping out of extracurricular drama club that he previously loved. He'd suffered what he thought was a big humiliation there that when they went and interviewed other people, he tripped over a stage prop or something and said, I'm quitting.

When they talked to the teacher and peers, they were like, we didn't think anything of that. So there was a self-perception issue going on there that they identified. So what did they do? They offered counseling support. To the mother and to Brandon, do you want to maybe see a therapist? Talk to him empathetically. What's going on with you? How can we help you?

Okay, you're not doing well in this class. You dropped out. What if we give you some independent support here with some tutoring? Or you can finish this class on your own. Would you like to do that, Brandon? Yeah, that sounds pretty good. How about with the one teacher you do like?

Education support, counseling, extracurriculars, working with the family where possible. That's not always possible in it. There are cases where, as we've seen in the last couple of years, the parents are a total mess and they're actually accelerating the problem. That's a harder situation.

They're working with her to say, okay, make sure that you watch what he's doing online. If he starts fixating on violent stuff- tell us. Let's make sure we know what he's bringing back and forth to school in his backpack. Lots of measures like that.
