No. Over-protective parents don't cause suicidal thoughts. Involved parents actually decrease the odds of someone committing suicide. If someone has said they are thinking of suicide, get help.

I think suicide is all too common with overprotective parents and without overprotective parents. All kids go through a difficult time growing up and some have better coping skills than other kids. I do not thing that being overprotective would be a reason why kids contemplate suicide. It happens for a lot of reasons.

I think that parents who are overprotective tend to care and this tells the teen that they are loved. Teens that think about suicide tend to feel alone.

Sure I think a percent of teens would consider suicide but some parents have a good reason to keep rules strict.

Yes. I am in my 20s and my parents are so overprotective that they treat me like a seven years old. Because of them I had given up on friends, fashion, social activites, celebrations, and now Im thinking of suicide in hope I can reincarnate and be a normal person

Personally it does. I know their reasons for raising me the way they do is out of love, but it makes me resent them for depriving me of things that I should experience as a young adult.

SOME Overprotective parents... their way of parenting can rob the children's childhood, or the possible enjoyment. I lost 15 years of my life being locked with textbooks. I'm 16 (in college & still locked up). Soon I'll be working. I once wanted to die because I feel like missing-everything-in-my-life...a-routine-of-being-born-then-go-to-school-then-go-to-college-then-work-then-die-and-all-fun-was-missed.
