In Randell and other authors’ article, their methods are questionnaires, interviews, and surveys, and their primary targets are high school drop outs. In conclusion of their findings, they locked on family as the primary factor for suicide rate. Even small things within family such as an argument would weaken a family’s connection, and would increase the risk of suicidal behaviours.

They strongly suggested that this situation should not be taken lightly and it could also be reduce by some simple methods. With various methodology they suggested, the primary goal is to lessen the gap between the families and build a stronger relationship. Helping each family with the goal of reducing barriers of their parent-child relationship and achieve long term happiness within
