Best Answer

Tell an adult or someone else. If you are an adult, you should probably talk to the person about it, and see if it is just a bad day, or if this has been going on for a long time, or if it is a medical problem, such as depression. If so, you should help your friend set up an appointment with their doctor to get some medicine for their condition, or suggest conseling. If this person who talks about it isn't your friend, you should still tell somebody else, so you aren't the only one who knows. If they did kill themselves, you would probably feel aweful. And dealing with life and death is very overwelming and so you don't need to help this person by yourself. Get help, and get help fast. If they are planning to commit suicide and they tell you, you can report it to the police and they can take care of it so nothing bad happens.

When my 9 year old daughter went on this site your not happy there was things about committing suicide and losing your virginity on it you suggest this gets taken off?

Alert any supervisors to any questions or answers talking about committing suicide. This is serious, and wikianswers in no way endorses people committing suicide. If we realize there are questions or answers giving information on how to commit suicide then we will promptly remove it. As far as losing virginity, if it is a reasonable question about it, we do permit it and it should be placed in the sex category. I encourage you to always monitor children when they are on any website and if you see them looking at inappropriate pages for their age please make any actions that would stop them from doing so. If you would like something removed contact wikianswers or a supervisor, but keep in mind that not all sex questions are inappropriate.
