| dc.description.abstract | On January 2, 2025, Aruna, Dinamina, Divaina, and Mawbima newspapers reported on an incident in which a mother died by suicide after murdering her two-year-old child. All four newspapers failed to publish helplines, mentioned the suicide method, and mention the reason for the death for suicide. In addition, Aruna published a part of the suicide note written by the mother before death. Media ethical guidelines recommend not giving prominence to method of suicide, reporting on suicide in an empathetic manner taking a mental health approach, and publishing helplines. | en_US |
