Nonsuicidal self-injury, suicide ideation, and suicide attempts among sexual minority children.

Abstract

In a large sample of 9-10-year-old U.S. children, sexual orientation disparities emerged across NSSI, suicide ideation, and suicide attempts. Results indicate that sexual minority children are a vulnerable population for SITBs. Inclusion of children in prevention programs is encouraged.
