"I'm the brother of the student committed suicide"

*Reddit

It doesn't feel real to type that title. None of this feels real yet. He was, as many of you are, a brilliant mind. To those who will say that UW doesn't isolate their students, I'd like to tell you that you're kidding yourself. My brother is the second person to die like this in this year alone at his residence. Waterloo hasn't called my family. We have no support from the school in this. I don't want to see the look on my father's face when he begs me not to leave him. I don't know who any of you are, and none of you know who I am, but please fucking know that you can go home whenever you want. It's just school. It's just a fucking grade. You're worth more than a fucking job or a degree. Chase was in the co-op program and the idea of moving back and forth every 6 months must have scared the living hell out of him. The fact that my brother was reduced to a number and was mistreated by the entire structure of the Waterloo campus is sickening. I read through the article published on uwimprint.com and the only words I could say were "fuck you". They say they offer their deepest sympathies when they never even gave us the courtesy of a phone call. My brother is dead because of the school and system that has become accepted. My brother is gone and I'll never be able to tell him I love him ever again.

I'm 16 years old and will soon be deciding on where I'd like to go for school. I'm so hurt, I'm in so much pain. I need help. I need to know that you guys will be okay. I need you to know that you have a family and a home. School is not everything. Do me a favour and go home as soon as possible and hug your parents. They don't deserve this and neither do you. If you're ever homesick and feel so lonely you can't bear it then just fucking transfer schools to be closer to your family.

Just please let my family be an example of the cowardice and the borderline criminality of the system we're all a part of. If you're attending the University of Waterloo next year or have an open invitation, please decline it or seriously consider another alternative.

Save a life and be there for your roommate, your friend, and your family.

To those wondering we were notified by police and detectives. I will no longer be responding to messages immediately because I need to be with my family. Thank you all for your continued love and support. Hug the people you love. I'm aware this information will be picked up by a newspaper or some form of student thing, but just please keep in mind that I never want anyone to feel like they're unable to just leave school. This isn't supposed to happen.

Hi guys. It's been almost 4 days since Monday, and I have a great sense of enlightenment through you all and your responses. I was incredibly emotional when I wrote the original post and I regret none of what I said, but my focus is now on ensuring that this doesn't happen again. Not like this. We need to not live in the past and step forward and make differences. I'm not going to wait for the University to step up, I'm only going to extend my hand to those who are grieving and offer my help. We all need each other. No speech, no interview, no statement can say that enough. Thank you all. Spread love.


今年才开始三个月,已经跳的第二个了,两个都是一年级新生,完全无法统计学校之外的租房处,以及高年级,又有多少个。

只感觉知道这个消息之后的一周,都过得有点恍惚,因为在这个人的那几天,我也曾经有过这样的想法,一念之差,也许那个人会是我?

若说国内的部分学校是黑洞,尤其高考压力下的高中,和名校top专业,这边的大学也丝毫不差,mental health也同样徒有其表,预约一个心理咨询需要等上大半个月,态度不是敷衍,就是流于表面,毫无帮助,去过几次,再不想去。

看到微博上,武大测绘自杀,遗体被发现,农村父母哭泣着不肯承认这是“我的大学儿子”,同样的,听到这次suicide,和父母的越洋视频里,所有反应都是,这个人是不是中国人?这个人太不负责任了,他的父母该有多伤心啊!

可是,我也想说,是什么给了这些孩子这么大的期待,这么大的压力,父母想要的到底是什么,真的是他的快乐吗,还是那个光鲜亮丽的成绩外表。

武志红的“巨婴国”被强制下架,因为无论他的观点是否过于极端,都挑战了中国父母子女间的某种契约关系,这种契约当然有其温情的一面,也同样有扭曲的一面,双方困顿其中,尤其是尚无经济能力,弱势的孩子一方,在这种期待下活的太辛苦,无能为力。

昨天视频,我说看上了一个CBC小哥,英语能力不太够用,正在疯狂泡英语环境,他立刻问,那你什么时候能和CBC一样?

从去年九月到现在,希望你用一月的时间抵别人的一年,那也不过是六个月,六年,却要和别人的十九年一模一样。

身边有太多CS大神,从初中开始,甚至很小的时候,都有工程师父亲母亲的言传身教,我没有,却要求你能和别人在第一次coop就找到一样的公司,希望在hackathon里有一样的名次,上一样的advanced courses,就是这样的期待。

压的人喘不过气。
