A local family is grieving after another transgender teen took his own life.
It's the fourth such suicide in San Diego County since March.
“I can’t even begin to describe the pain of losing a child,” said Sarah Castle.
Emmett Castle, 14, was sensitive, owned a big heart and a quiet maturity.
“He had a wisdom beyond his years,” said Castle.
On Saturday morning, Castle learned her son took his own life at her ex-husband's Mission Valley home.

Family members say there were no immediate warning signs. Emmett had
friends, and was looking forward to getting his name legally changed
later this month.
Since March, three other local transgender teens have committed suicide.
“There's nothing to make of it. It's tragedy. Just tragedy,” said Castle.

Welcome to H&C,,, where I aggregate news of interest. Primary topics include abuse with "the church", LGBTQI+ issues, cults - including anti-vaxxers, and the Dominionist and Theocratic movements. Also of concern is the anti-science movement with interest in those that promote garbage like homeopathy, chiropractic and the like. I am an atheist and anti-theist who believes religious mythos must be die and a strong supporter of SOCAS.
