No, he did not. It was his Grandson. Read here:

...Extra credit: Spock rowed on Yale's crew team, and with them won a gold medal in the 1924 Olympics... Contrary to popular rumor, Dr. Spock's son did not commit suicide. His grandson Peter did commit suicide in 1983... Spock is occasionally confused with Mr. Spock of the TV show Star Trek.

I don't know, but I would like to make the point that you cannot blame any family member for another person's suicide. My Steve committed suicide last December 16th, even though he knew I loved him a great deal, and even though he knew I would be heart-broken. It was something he felt he had to do. I really don't think there was anything I could have done to prevent it. His mother took the position that I was not to blame, but rather that she was glad I kept him alive as long as I did.
Please don't go around assigning blame for suicide. The decision is with the person who does it; otherwise, it is not suicide, it is homicide.

Not sure about Spock, but I know Art LInkletter's son did.

Yes,
Kinda makes you wonder if he used his own advice on child rearing, doesn't it?
