Marie Osmond's teenage son committed suicide last night, this according to Entertainment Tonight.

Michael Blosil, one of Osmond's eight children, reportedly jumped from his downtown Los Angeles apartment building.

ET says Michael left behind a note that said he intended to commit suicide due to a life-long battle with depression.

Donny Osmond released a statement that says: "Please pray for my sister and her family."

Suicide doesn’t care what religion you are, or what race, or what political persuation.

I think someday they will find that there are certain chemical or hormonal imbalances that affect teenagers, especially male teenagers.

All we can do in the meantime is pray for the families left behind and wondering what they could have done or seen or felt to prevent this horrible tragedy.

Another "child of privilege", living in America, battles "depression". Give me a break.

Part of their treatment should be, mandatory, three months working and living in a remote Afghan village where people have actual reasons to be depressed.
