Something is VERY fishy with this story. This child would NOT be home with his parents. He would be in a crisis center, hospital, psy ward, being observed and evaluated & receiving therapy. They just don't send suicidal children home with a pat on the head.
wanted to add...Who hears a noise in the bathroom of a school and immediately calls campus security to check out the source of the noise? Ridiculous!

I agree that he should be in some sort of treatment facility where he can be closely monitored, but the noise thing might make sense.....depending on what the noise was. For instance if it was screaming, contacting campus security to investigate would have been the prudent action.
The story is that the student hung himself. So why would there be screaming?
You can't really scream if you hung yourself.
I think he could have been screaming as the person who notified security passed by. Nothing in the article indicates that he was already hanging when the noise was heard. I don't mean screaming like the foolish women in horror movies. I mean more screaming out in anger and frustration, in emotional pain.
Thank goodness. Someone is still looking into it.

snip~"It concerns me that a middle school child felt the need to do that, but not so much where it happened. That's not the important part, where it happened," the parent said.
APS officials said school officers and the Crimes Against Children unit is still investigating the incident.
Officials would not speak regarding the boy's condition, but did say that that he is now with his family. APS said they also notified parents.~ end
Exactly, if they are still investigating why is the child with his parents?
people that attempt suicide are hospitalized and evaluated usually for at least 72 hours.
