Witch hunts are a popular pastime with most of humanity. Let emotions rule and logic flies out the window. People love to have something or someone they can point the finger at to alleviate their responsibilities in situations that would require facing up to their own shortcomings. Much like a government that creates a boogeyman overseas to attack so its faults are overlooked.
No J DUB it doesnt seem callous.
You hit the nail on the head. After scanning the website for this kid, it is unfortunate that his parents must reach out to a substance and blame it for their underlying problem. The Powerpoint Presentation with regard to there foundation lifts heavily from various web sites and regurgitates old steriod myths. It even lifts content from Rick Collins book, all manipulaterd to vent their frustration on their tragedy. But the presentation does not say," take responsibility for the people that live under your own roof, attend your childs football games, go see them practice and keep an ongoing dialogue with your kids". Instead it leaves that responsibility up to coaches and teachers. Steroids weren't this kids problem.
BTW, I apologize if this seems callous to anyone, but it is a shame that this guy is doing all he can to use AAS as a scapegoat. If you read the website that admin posted above, it even says on there that his mom punished him for something, so Taylor went upstairs and hung himself. Ths kid obviously had much deeper problems that his parents failed to address.
From what Ive heard about the kid, he had a previous history of suicidal thoughts and actions. Im surprised that the family isnt trying to sue Phizer for the possible side effects of Zoloft (which he was using) on young people. But its not his pre-existing mental issues with depression, its gotta be the steroids.
Yep there is definitely a stronger correlation between steroid use and suicide than extreme depression and suicide . It is just so weird for someone depressed and on anti-depressants to commit suicide, so it had to be those steerroids that did it.

Do you have any documentation for this? Not that I don't trust you, I just want to make sure its not hearsay
