The main reason for suicide is the lack of a reason to live for.
It all goes back to your believes and what's your world view. Your believes are the foundation on which you act upon. For example there are mentally sick people that think they are cattle and they actually go and eat grass and sleep like cattle (the sickness it's called boanthropy). The point is that if you believe something, you will act on that believe.
Some things to consider
1. God says that you are created by Him and that He loves you no mater what you do and He's always ready to receive you and forgive you. He loved you so much He gave even His only Son to die instead of you on the cross. He want's you to live and to bless you with eternal life.
That gives you value, meaning in life and a reason to live for. Suddenly you are loved, accepted, appreciated. You are a child of God and you will inherit the Kingdom of Heaven with Him.
If you chose to believe God, then you have eternal value and have many reasons to live for:
* Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. (Luke 12:32) * To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. (Revelation 3:21) * And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. (Revelation 21:4)
2. If you chose to believe evolution, then there is no reason to live.
Evolution says that you are only chemicals that got together by chance. That means you have no value. You are worth nothing more than the chemicals that form you. Evolution says that there is no afterlife, no God made justice for all the injustice that many people got on Earth. Evolution says that we are just a "better" primate or money like creature and all will end at the funeral.
It's all in what you chose to believe. Even God says that there is no reason and logic in living without Him:
* For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again. (Ecclesiastes 3:19-20) That's only the case if you take God out of the "equation". Otherwise there is plenty of reasons to live for !
So what are we teaching our teens ?
That they are an animal and that killing others got us here ? (that's the way evolution works: the stronger kills the weakest or takes his food which is the same)
Or we teach that every single human has eternal value and is loved by the greatest person of all time: God !
