Tammy Aaberg and their family have been coming to terms with the death by suicide of their son and brother, Justin, on July 9. From WCCO-TV: Behind that big smile and lots of friends was a shy, loyal 15-year-old boy who loved to play the cello. Justin Aaberg came out as gay when he was 13 and, as his mom found out only after he hanged himself, suffered tremendously inside. "I actually thought he had the perfect life. I thought out of anybody I knew that he had the perfect life," said Justin Aaberg's mother, Tammy Aaberg. "But I guess he didn't think so." We'll talk to Tammy about her feelings, about Justin, and what she would say to other moms. Join us on this important show. Dr. Ray Werking, Leesa Nixon, and Fred Elia will the discussion on warning signs, how "bullycide" could be more of a threat to gay youth in foster/adoptive care, and what are the roles of schools "in loco parentis."
