The Law vs. Police Policy?

If you are the parent or the guardian of a person with a traumatic brian injury, & that child or person is in a depression, apparently the parent or guardian has no rights in any decision about why the person with a traumatic brian injury might say "I dont wanna keep living." There was a time when it wasn't "to protect & serve" like it says on every squad car the police with rediculous policy. A lawyer told me this is a violation of civil rights. It would fall under an illegal seizure. By law, a suicide threat in any way, shape or form is like me saying "I am going to murder [x]." I was also told the police men don't have an extra 5 minutes to look into facts. This is the 2nd time it's happened. This time, because the school gave punishment to our daughter for being late to school. fact is, her being late every now and then the school could have called us and we would have told them "this was arranged to be ok" "DO NOT PUNISH LYNN". lynn told the school, but they didn't listen. Luckily I did talk to the chief of police in another town. It's a small town. The chief has a brother-in-law with a brian injury. If I can't get the laws, but it's not really the law, if I can't get the police policy here changed, we need to move. Why the hell should police policy override, serve & protect the citizens? I would like to thank police chief Mike in a small town near us. He showed me there still are police departments with common sense. & while that town might be too expensive for us, if there's 1 police chief, there should be others. The deputy chief in this town said he would have to bring it to the city attorney to see if any arrangement can even be made.

So I guess the question is - why should police policy interfere with the law, civil rights, and some common sense?

The parents have no rights in the decision a child makes as to whether they live or die?
Since when?
Wasn't suicide against the law, last time I checked?

Further, if said person is suffering a brain injury; regardless that they may feel they want to die,, isn't it possible it's not really their true feelings even? But the injury driving them to feel such urges?

It seems to me to be a medical issue; and a serious one at that; but NEVER should there be an agreement for God's sake, to help a child take their own life!
I can't even begin to wrap my head around this!

yes, suicide is against the law.


that is what a dr. told me.
and after the many talks lynn has had here with us, she says she doesn't think she would.
it uis more a venting on her part.
we still watch her very close till her mood is back to happy.




our plans are to keep lynn alive, not help her die.
her worst times are behind her.
those were when she was just starting to understand how much her life changed.
it happens as a person stops fighting back, and gives up.
those days i stayed up nights, my wife days.
after a bad day, i still stay up nights out of habbit.

All I can say is, thank God you guys are all close, and 'talk' your feelings out. Could be quite a scary situation otherwise.

You are all in my prayers.

. thanks.
can you shot a prayer for the city and states attorney out here please?

Consider it done!
