Another body of a young person has been found in the Bridgend area.

South Wales Police named her as 16-year-old Jenna Parry, who was from the village of Cefn Cribwr, around five miles from Bridgend.

What evidence have the media got to do with the contribution to the deaths? It looks like some Cult pack which you see a lot of t happening in the US. Or is there someone or something which is influencing them on the internet in chat rooms, etc?

Very strange!!

I'm so very sorry to keep hearing of all these youthful suicides in Bridgend.

I can't really offer any words of wisdom--just my thoughts and prayers with all the bereaved and all the agencies that have to deal with this.

The media coverage of suicide increases its incidence. Studies have shown that if people see suicides being reported they are more likely to see it as an acceptable option themselves. I wonder if the Bridgend occurences are now being fueled by media coverage?

I'm sure it won't be long before someone blames the internet for this. Whatver the reason it's very sad to see young people (or any people come to that) taking their own lives. Sad
