Prayers needed-

A friend of the family, Sydney's son, Johanathan, commited suicide after having
an arguement with his Dad.

His Dad is so distraught he hasn't been able to return home to his house since the incident.

His feelings of loss and guilt are overwhelming. I can't even imagine how he must feel.

Thanks
dave

From one who has been through this -- he has to seek professional help as soon as possible. I lost a grandson the same way a few years ago. Most important to get to a professional.

Prayers sent for the family.

The father is going to carry this "guilt" around like a ox yoke, unless he eventually realizes that his son had underlying issues that the father may not have any knowledge of, or could do nothing about.
The argument just happened to be the final straw. It could have easily been anyone or anything else that may have triggered his demise.
If arguing with parents were to cause that much grief, we'd all have been basket cases in our own times.
I feel bad for the father, because no parent should outlive their children. It's just not right.
Unfortunately, there are some people that either can't be saved, or can't be reached in time to avoid these tragedies.
My prayers go out to the family.

That is very, very sad news. As a dad, I can't imagine how the father must be feeling. I hope he will be ok. I will pray for peace. That the family would be well.Very sad indeed.

Be encouraging, not discouraging

Horribly heartbreaking. You never know what 's in someone's head and very little you can do about it, my thoughts and prayers for both....
