SINGAPORE, July 24 ― Parents, schools and society at large are “ill-equipped” to deal with young people facing mental health issues, President Halimah Yacob said yesterday (July 23), in response to the death of a 13-year-old boy at River Valley High School. A 16-year-old fellow student, who attempted suicide two years ago, has been charged with murder.
Parents face “great difficulty” in knowing if their children are acting out as part of their growth phase as adolescents, or if it is due to a much deeper issue, Halimah wrote in a Facebook post.
