How much more likely are teens to commit suicide if they are under stress?

In some countries teen suicide is higher because of the stress put on them by family and school, for example South Korea's teen suicide rate is pretty high due to the competitive aspects of school and the value of family. Students in South Korea study more than the students of the US and this causes pressure to be the best especially when everyone else wants to be the best. Family is also very important and if they can't handle the pressure their parents are giving them to do good in school and worrying about failing or ruining the family image, this leads many South Korean students to suicide.

∙ 11y ago- According to the Los Angeles Times approximately 1,300 college students a year commit suicide. University students are more likely to think or commit suicide than Elementary School or High School (although suicide can occur in both schools.) The cause of this is peer pressure; too much homework; stress put upon them to get good grades by their peers at college and also in some cases their parents. Too much competition for better grades due to the rise of more students going to college is increased in some students.
