As parents, there's nothing scarier than the thought of losing our child. But did you know suicide is the leading cause of death for youth ages 10-24 in the United States?  One of the biggest fears parents have is missing the warning signs.  And the question we all want answered is: how can I tell if my teen is at risk?
