She is still coming to terms with the death of her teenage granddaughter, who had committed suicide over two Bs in her O levels.

Then three months after the 16-year-old plunged to her death, Madam Ng Siang Mui’s grief- and guilt-struck daughter, who was the teen’s mother, also killed herself.

The tragic double deaths has left her son-in-law, the teen’s father, mentally unstable.

In an interview with The New Paper, Madam Ng, 71, shared the devastation and anguish of the triple tragedy that began in January this year.

She was reluctant to speak at first, noting that the death had torn the family apart.

Madam Ng initially said: "Talking to you now is useless. My daughter is dead. My granddaughter is dead."

She changed her mind later because she hoped that sharing their story could help highlight early intervention and save more lives.

Madam Ng said that in January, just three hours after getting her results slip, her granddaughter jumped to her death.

Except for two Bs - in English and Mathematics - the student had scored distinctions for her other subjects.

More children and teenagers have been seeking help for suicidal thoughts, said the Samaritans of Singapore (SOS).

SOS says that in 2013, they had 224 clients, aged 19 and below, writing in to them — that is 65 more compared to the year before.

I would reiterate that the Weak and feeble shall be eliminated from the society. In fact, we should import more people and purge out the current crop of Sinkies for slowing the progression of Singapore .

So, death of the 2 souls is Natural. Nothing to be sad. For 2 souls leaving, we can have more more replacement from Vietnam, Indonesia, or China. They are more capable digits who will be willing to contribute to the well being of Singapore.

The ironic thing is: those kids who did well in their memory regurgitation tests are deemed to be intelligent elites who are good enough to lead the country in future. And you get people like Tan Chuan-Jin and Lui Tuck Yew. :rolleyes:

And those very people are the ones who continue to propagate the fear and myth of 'Singapore exceptionalism', 'Singapore is vulnerable and has no natural resources, only human resources' etc. Silly parents buy into this hogwash and the cycle repeats in the next generation.

The idiocy goes full circle. :cool:

If they do'nt die from exams stress, they would be ask to color their CVs by climbing mountains and be killed by falling boulders.

Why do'nt they let kids be kids and enjoy their youthful days free from stress...

This is something very sad for the family.
Just got to stress to ones children that don't get the grade just try harder the next time.
No need to stress them out.
It's not the end of the world if ones grade is bad.
Learn a skill or trade. 一技之长。
Rest in peace.
