The number of suicides by children and juveniles has remained similar or even slightly reduced in the last 5 years. This correlates with the constancy or slight reduction in the number of the under-20-years population over this period. Comparison with deaths due to suicide in Prussia (1894-1897) indicates that suicide in children and juveniles is not more common today than it was nearly a hundred years ago. Hanging and suffocation are the most frequent means, followed by poisoning. Less common are jumping from a height, shooting, drowning or stabbing. Cause of the suicide attempt is usually a disturbed relationship to a partner. Acute quarrel with parents dominates. The psychopathological background is abnormal reactions to experience and abnormal reactions to conflict. Neurosis and psychosis or infantile reactions are much less common.
在过去5年中，儿童和青少年自杀的数量保持稳定甚至略有下降。这与该时期20岁以下人口数量的稳定或略有下降相关。与普鲁士（1894 - 1897年）的自杀死亡情况相比，表明如今儿童和青少年自杀并不比近一百年前更常见。上吊和窒息是最常见的方式，其次是中毒。从高处跳下、枪击、溺水或刺伤则较少见。自杀企图的原因通常是与伴侣关系失调。与父母的激烈争吵占主导。心理病理学背景是对经历的异常反应和对冲突的异常反应。神经症、精神病或幼稚反应则少见得多。
