The Hangings In Bridgend - Wales

What's the world coming to.. Two more young people from the town hanged themselves this week , making it a total of 16 within the last year , and 13 other hangings in the Welsh valleys may be linked..

There was a story in the paper last week suggesting it may be an internet phenomonon where people are getting cult status on a website once they are dead.. Like a brick with their name added to the wall..

youngsters topping themselves is sad news , gotta be bullying and they feel they dont fit into the society they are living in ...

It's a real head scratcher this phenomenon. I wouldn't be surprised if it is an Internet cult - total waste of life and a warning on how the internet can influence the young to carry out insane acts. In America there is yet another student who blew his brains out after opening fire on students from a different school. It is becoming a crime of frightening regularity thereby becoming less of a shock when it happens unlike the Columbine or Dunblane horror. Very sad.

Its a shit hole down here, I live about 15 mins from Bridgend and the surroundings has got to be something to do with it, nothing to do in the town for kids, has to be demoralising which would eventually lead to either drugs or depression.

its the surroundings, its a pretty bleek area with little job prospects for young people we had the same problem in belfast last year, it was all young unemployed men with no qualifications hanging themselves. there are plenty of options though and its the cowards way to go, must be horrible for he families
