My line of thinking is similar to Textcritic... it's not out of the realm of possibility to imagine a time when your knees don't work well, or your back aches a lot when you're older. I think it's much harder to imagine a time when you're so depressed you want to die. Whenever you see a story about a guy killing himself who has young kids, one of the common comments is always: I just don't understand how anybody could do this. That's exactly the problem – depression is a bit of a prick that way.

I don't totally blame a kid for entering a league and not taking the risk of depression or other mental illness seriously. It's too hard to understand for a healthy mind.
