    Really sorry Mr. George! I also kinda feel sad how my parents raised me. I always felt unloved as opposed to my younger two siblings whom I felt were preferred to me. I never heard any affirmations! Always expecting being reprimanded, and I feared and hated my mother. I remember one time when I was in class 7 I could not acknowledge my mother as my own mother, but I quickly acknowledged that she was the mother to my other siblings. I remember one day she commented in mother tongue, " I'll beat that round head of yours" then I was around 11 years and that really affected me, and I hated myself and that's when I knew that I had a round head! how I wished I could hide myself from people so that they could not see my round head, and that affects me even now in my thirties. Once I made some mistake and she told me that I behave like my father, my father always stayed upcountry and he was not successful in life despite the fact he had spent 5 years in Canada, notwithstanding he started earning early in his life after finishing form four. But he has nothing to show, he never even paid for our school fees. I mean I feel that my esteem was killed by my parent while I was in primary school and that has affected me in my grown up years. I am not confident anyway, always feeling a burden to people, I feel I don't fit in the society, I tend to isolate myself so others could be happy. I'm really in a mess!

    "The boy would do everything in the house" says a lot about the balance in the family. There is nothing normal with one child in the family doing all the chores. There is nothing wrong with chores but those tasks should have been allocated equally among the three children. That child had built up trauma. Though i feel sorry for the family, hopefully parents should learn that this generation is more sensitive so traditional upbringing does not work.

    Firstly, I sympathise with you and may your son's soul rest in peace. Secondly, I would like to share my sentiments drawn from my experience battling with bipolar disorder. 1. Mental illness like hypertension is a silent killer. Most victims are afraid of speaking out even to their closest family because of fear of judgment and fear of being a burden. 2. Let's normalise asking questions like are you okay? How can I help you? 3. Dear African parents, stop being dictators and always imposing decisions on your children. Connect more then correct.

    I beg to differ. I went through the same thing and thoughts as the son. My siblings were favored because they were bright with being bought whatever they wanted. This was not the same for me. I was beaten, and not the other two. I became suicidal while in class seven and even crafted a letter. Somehow I shaked it off, accepted the situation and decided to keep quiet and do my thing. I used to cry everyday but what kept me going is the fact that at the end of it all I will finalize school and be away from them. Hee, it wasn't easy but here I am. My two siblings still have access to opportunities I wished I had and are given resources. But this does not affect me anymore. I mind my business and focus on working on me, which I am proud off. Funny thing, my parents still somehow do not know about this. For the longest I despised my mother since the mistreatment was worse from her. Stop blaming the ENEMY bana. Its you parents who are the cause. I still cry to date and the trauma is worse, I no longer go home.

    There are kids who are just born with mental illness. I think as a parent if you try your best you should count as having done your work. Even if he was not pushed to get his potential out, he would now be living a very bitter life claiming you have all along hated him and are responsible for how his life turned out. It is really being between a hard place and a rock for the parent. Sorry Mr. George but you did well while still struggling yourself.

    I think when he said his son expressed to him and the mom that he hated his childhood and he felt hurt by them they should have rather apologised and tried to work with him and listened to him , rather than just tell him he's the most loved child, it seems like a way of dismissing his feelings, then him calling for a meeting but its just for telling them what they have done wrong , I feel like from this story it was more of the dad telling the kids what to do always

He was an alcoholic, so there was always something to argue about. I'm thankful that this wonderful man has shared his story.

    I lived exactly the life of the son(who died) of this man but I persevered so much. Talk about verbal insults, gossip, loneliness, isolation, many thoughts amongst others. This man had no idea that his son had issues and was slowly dieing from inside. His son once said that 'i will never marry'. It is because he didn't see value in a woman.

They couldn't understand, why, and regardless of doing what any parent does for the betterment of their children, he ended committing suicide. 'The story of Nick Traina' made me realize mental health challenges can begin from any age and at times from the mum's womb. Your did the best you could have done.

I assumed the gun was 150 and the game was 50 bop…am sure we reasoned out budget with him but his mind could not fathom. Am imagining if we had many of those incidents…the devil would have come in and played his mind

    Personally, I would rather die than repeat my life from birth to high school. I started living when I became independent and that’s after graduating from college And please, don’t blame yourself for what happened to your son…you cared enough to force him to work hard. I’m sure you’d still be blaming yourself if you withheld discipline and your son failed to complete studies and became a family liability. This is what I think, your unhealthy relationship with your wife negatively affected your children and more to the one who committed suicide. I can’t sit back and let my child do whatever they want; they need guidance and sometimes it’ll mean chastising them

    The comments show just how little most people know, or understand about mental illness. Before compliance, obedience, success, and other measures of success, seek wellness in your kids. Pray for your kids, but don't forget to ACT, consistently. People die from depression, they don't just off themselves.

    According to counselling psychology, thats my field. We say that "we are the product of the environment" we are what we are because of how we were raised. Trauma is a very dangerous aspect in ones life,depression is real,bipolar,schizophrenia and other mental health related problems are actually in our society,we face these victims in our daily lives but without our concerns and knowledge about mental health issues we will think that it is okay,yet it is okay not to be okay.
