In this Washington Post article, Allen Carlson minimizes the teen suicide crisis, chides social scientists for attempting to expand the social welfare state, & calls for a return of the religious involvement & the traditional family. In the July 7 edition of the Post, California Democratic Tom Lantos & suicidologists Alan Berman & Charlotte Ross rejected Carlson’s views & question his use of research findings. (NBB)
