On Wednesday's broadcast, on death by suicide, you read an email from a man who said he was 17 when his mother died in what he considered a supremely selfish act.  The subject of "selfishness" was discussed but nothing was said about how hard it must have been for a 17 year old boy to lose his mom!  I think you missed something in not responding directly to him and in fact, ignoring what he wrote.
