At least till after Christmas? It would be a shame if he ruined the holidays for everybody. Who else thinks this is unfair?

Until after Christmas? I'm guessing you guys don't have a close relationship. You should be concerned with him wanting to kill himself PERIOD not till after Christmas. Tell him that he has his kids to live for and that he cannot leave you alone. Get him professional help and you may want to go with him. The holiday's have a higher rate for suicides but if you're there for him and vice versa, and you guys go get some help then maybe he'll be there even after New Year's. Good luck!

That is a really callous attitude about your Father. Oh, don't kill yourself or you will ruin the holidays for me and everyone else,,but its ok after the holidays..What is wrong with this picture? You should be saying, that you never want your Father to kill himself. So get help, with your Father.

Why does your dad feel so depressed that he thinks he has nothing to live for?? I think that this is what you need to find out and see if you can get him to talk to someone. It does not have to be a professional. Most times a good mate will help more than a counselor. My dad used to have a saying, "It takes the bravest man to kill himself, but it is a cowards way out." Your dad needs to face his problems instead of trying to run away. By killing himself he is being very selfish and leaving all his family to clean up his mess. Please, try to find out why he feels this way!!

Look i am twenty years old. My father killed his delf Feb.7 this year. It is the hardest thing i have ever had to deal with. I didnt know what i lost until he was gone. This is not a joking matter,AT ALL. If your question was serious, send me a message. If not you need to do some serious, self image analyzing.
The question you asked, is something i really ask myself or maybe shoulde have. SO IT IS NOT FUNNY

Seriously, my brother committed suicide, yes it's probably the most selfish thing you can do to the people you claim to love. If you don't just get up and change what's getting you down, it will always be there. So, get up and kick the worlds a** for a change! Make some of those horrible things get out of you way! But don't kill yourself, its way to hard to stay living.

r u serious? y until Christmas? y must there be a DEADline?
well, tell him that no matter how he feels bad about himself, u still love him no matter what. and made him feel it.
and the world still needs a man like him. =)
and of course, if it's really serious.. get help from a friend, or call a psychiatrist, or anybody could help.
call your fam and relatives to reunite.. if he meets them, his grandchildren or his friends in college or highschool, u know dude, those ppl he loved, provide him something he misses, that may alter his idea of killing himself.

If he is serious you can not help him...if he says something about suicide he just may be asking for help....a child from a father who did commit suicide...its not something one should take lightly or even joke about like you did....He may feel you are the only one who he can say something to...call and talk to the suicide hot line and ask the professionals, are you even that worried about him or your holiday?

You can't convince anyone of anything if they are determined. If you truly believe he is suicidal, you need to get him professional help. Talk to him about getting professional counseling. There are anti-depressent medications and other things that can make his holidays a lot brighter!
Best Wishes,

You are one of (if not the) biggest jerks I have ever met. If your dad is suicidal the least you could do is not be so shallow and care about someone else besides yourself for a change!

First off, its not your responsability to save your father. He is the adult and he is there to care for you. If your father is threatening suicide then you should tell another adult and let them deal with it. They will be much more equiped to deal with it, both emotionally and knowledgably. I am so sorry that your Dad is having difficulties in his life, but it truly shouldn't be something that his son has to carry.
