No, I totally agree. Survivor's guilt is a terrible thing, and I've met those who survived a close relative's suicide and were almost destroyed by it.
It's complicated by the suicide (or would be suicide) firmly believing they are doing all around them a favour by bowing out. There's no excuse though, for making a six year old a party to it in any way.
