A kid knows. I went through it. Maybe not that young but close enough. It is hard and even as an adult I struggle. My parents abused me growing up, claiming it all in "Christianity." Do you call beating young kids with a board on the legs and butt until they are black and blue "love"? Through my teen years I starved myself and eventually wanted to kill myself. So yes, kids that young can contemplate suicide. I have been there and unless you know from personal experience then you don't know anything at all. Kids are a lot smarter than you give them credit for and you can't shield them from everything all of the time. Don't take it for granted because it can happen whether you believe it or not.
