    “Nathan had issues ……”. If his parents knew that the kid was unstable why didn’t they take him home and get him counseling? Colleges and universities are not babysitting services nor are they obligated to protect every student from themselves. If the campus police would have taken him away the parent’s would have sued for that. Besides, once someone decides to take their own life, it’s just a matter of time until it happens.

      sad but true; the parents are caught in the middle, both grieving and probably yet feeling anger; neither will bring their boy home. If someone had given him a loaded gun and he chose to pull the trigger, it was still his choice. He had to acquire the strength to commit the act; the prelude of attempts are usually calls for help and proof of a problem where the strength to complete the act was not complete. Sad, but forcing the police to pay a settlement won’t bring him back.
