Healio (3/31, Herpen) reports, “Children exposed to their parents’ patterns of suicidal behavior and methods are at a higher risk for repeating the same behaviors,” investigators concluded in a study that “examined national registries to include more than four million individuals from Denmark born after 1953, who were at least aged 10 years and living in the country at any point between Jan. 1, 1980 and Dec. 31, 2016.” The findings were published online March 27 in The Lancet Psychiatry.
