Some do, some don't. Most who attempt suicide try to give someone a signal that something isn't right with them and that they want to end their life. The majority people don't want to commit suicide they just want a better life, one they enjoy and can tolerate. If you think someone is going to harm themselves or attempt suicide, get them help.
In a survey of high school students, the National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center found that almost 1 in 5 teens had thought about suicide, about 1 in 6 teens had made plans for suicide, and more than 1 in 12 teens had attempted suicide in the last year. As many as 8 out of 10 teens who commit suicide try to ask for help in some way before committing suicide, such as by seeing a doctor shortly before the suicide attempt.
theres never really a positive correct answer to there however only the from the teens point of view would we know what made him or her do that
Female
A lot
Studies have shown that sexual orientation is typically not a factor in death rates; however, the rate of teen suicide is much higher among gay teens as it is among straight teens, due to bullying, lack of acceptance from family, and religious-based attacks against them. Gay teens who experience harassment are 8 times more likely to attempt suicide than straight teens.
Cyberbullying
Risk factors for suicide include being male, being over 75 and a family history of suicide.
How do teens odten feel that may make them more susceptible to suicide than adults
If you ever seen death, you've thought about suicide. The reason people commit suicide is because they over exudeate how bad there life is.
In 2005, there were 4,212 "youth" suicides. Youth applying to those aged 15 to 24, and the suicide rate of that age group was 10. My source of information appears to only give the rate of successful suicides. Only one in four suicide attempts is made by males, but one in five successful suicides is by females. See the link beow for more information.

Suicide is a tremendously complicated subject. Suicide in teenagers more so. Those who successfully attempt suicide generally tend to be males in their twenties with a history of serious mental illness (usually, but not always, type 1 Bipolar Affective Disorder), a history of alcohol and drug abuse, a history of suicide in their families and access to deadly weapons. As you can see, the general trend is that teenagers are unlikely to successfully attempt suicide. The trend is complicated by the fact that unsuccessful attempts are most likely to be made by females in their teens. Which puts us right in the wheel house of your question. Female in their teens who attempt suicide have a particular set of increased risk factors. Suicide attempts are obviously co-morbid with mental health disorders (only the terminally ill, in most Western countries, choose to commit suicide for reasons not based on mental health). This group is generally too young to be Bipolar (the leading mental health risk group for suicide), as that disease typically has an on-set after age 19. Thus depression and personality disorders would be greater causes in this age group. In this group there is also a strong co-morbidity with eating disorders, particularly anorexia nervosa; eating disorders are overwhelming co-morbid with a history of sexual abuse. So the leading causes for attempted suicide in one's teens (and the attendant risk of a successful suicide) include; the patient is female; the patient is depressed or suffers from a personality disorder; the patient is anorexic; and the patient has a history of sexual abuse.
