RE: Tough Post
That blows man, sorry to hear it. Losing a kid is horrible enough, but when it is something this it just makes it that much worse.
Just make sure friend doesn't blame himself. I know it will be hard and he will want to, but do everything you can to make him realize this is something he could not prevent. Troubled teens are very hard to figure out. And sometimes the most troubled ones like your buddy's don't even let you know until it is too late.
We are pulling for him, and you. The best thing you can do right now is just be there for him.
