Physician-assisted suicide occurs when a qualified medical professional provides a patient with the means to end their own life, typically through a prescription for lethal medication. This practice is legal in several jurisdictions under strict guidelines, often requiring that the patient is terminally ill, experiencing unbearable suffering, and capable of making informed decisions. The process usually involves multiple evaluations and waiting periods to ensure the patient's choice is voluntary and well-considered.

Greene (1994) found that for children between the ages of 5 and 14 in the USA, suicide ranked between the third and the sixth most frequent cause of death. Greene (1994) offered six "myths and misconceptions" around child suicide that fed into the generalised denial in society about this tragic phenomenon. Feigelman and Gorman (2008) researched the impact of peer suicide on youth suicide by friends of the deceased. They found that the short term effect of such a traumatic bereavement was increased survivors' depression and suicidality but that, fortunately, this effect was NOT maintained over time. The very helpful World Health Organisation (WHO) report (2000) "Preventing suicide a resource for teachers and other school staff" is available online.
