    White teenagers commit mass shootings & bombings due to the relationships they have with their parents. I have experienced the family aspects of the Black community & learned that Black parents are very open and honest with their children. They tell them what theyve done wrong, what theyve done right, & are open about most every aspect of their lives. Cuz Black parents are so honest with their children the children are open and honest with their parents. Black teenagers can talk to their parents without fear of being sent to a mental institution. They can let their troubles be heard without fear of being expelled from the family forever. They communicate with their parents & have honest discussions leaving little to nothing to hide. White parents are more secretive. They hide their wrongs & put expectations on their children, so great, that the children live in fear of what their parents will do if they find out their faults. White children lack attention & try to find some way to get it. Because of lack of communication between white parents & white children, white children feel trapped, lonely, & that their parents dont love them. Since there is no escape from the ongoing turmoil they face everyday they build up anger, resentment, and disparity. I believe that the two kids at the Columbine high lacked communication with their parents. They felt trapped, like their life would never get better, that they were worthless. I lived with this every day for 2 years in my early teenage years. I attempted suicide 8 times in two months. The only thing that kept me alive was a Black Radio Personality named Renee. Every day I would listen to her on the radio and every day without her knowing, she would give me encouragement to keep living my life the best I could. After about 2 years of constantly living in pain I was transferred to a continuation school. Olympic was the turning point in my life because I could not hide it from my parents. Since then my relationship with my parents has been open. They tell me everything & I tell them everything in return. We talk & have such a better relationship cuz of our honesty. In 3 years I have not thought of suicide. All of my close friends are Black and I also learned from them the way Black teens think about life & suicide. What I learned is that you need to do for yourself because no one will do for you! Suicide (& mass murders) is the easy (and stupid) ways out. There will always be a better day.
