Well I don't know anything about this ._.

But I would assume it would be from like 10+

Because kids don't know what the wor dusicide is at a young age. And are not even capable of carrying it out.

Children as young as 6 or 7 years old can commit suicide, in the sense that they can kill themselves, through their own actions alone. In 2010, a 6 year old girl in Portland, Oregon died by hanging herself with a belt. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1264617/Girl-6-sent-room-punishment-youngest-people-committed-suicide-US.html Most psychologists agree that children don't know that death is final and irreversible, until they're anywhere from 8 to 10 years old. So, would you only call it "suicide" if the person knows that death is permanent? Maybe.

Most people start to be "suicidal" around their teen to early adult years.  So around 12 to 25.  There is a greater rate of teens and young adults who commit suicide, rather than younger children or adults.
