Trend Spotting: Youth suicide in China.

Who can keep up with kids' trends?!! The new one is in China, where all the cool kids are offing themselves. It's now the #1 cause of death for young people, beating out car accidents, overdoses, and sitting through "Epic Movie".

In the rural areas, it might be because of arranged marriages. In the urban areas, it may be the popularity of a comic book titled "The Rabbit Which Wanted To Kill Itself."

Kids today!
