I have a funny story about this actually. I used to work in those help lines for teenagers in the early oughts. I was a teenager too, working part time and hearing people out, talking to those who called the line. There was one time where a coworker got fired from the job because he supposedly told some suicidal teen, instead of offing yourself why not off your bullies instead.
