Wasn't an analogy Wyot, just saying there are other ways.

The same can be said of jumping out of a window or standing in front of a train or lorry.
Unless she was as proximate to a very high window (to ensure death) as the gun or stood as near to a speeding train this is simply not true. In other words your analogies are less accessible and immediate means of suicide and actually illustrate rather than refute my point.
The parents allowed an easy immediate means of suicide within the place the child should have been safest, her home.
Additionally, the gun served no necessary purpose, unlike a window or train.
False analogy GM.
