You are loading a 24-year-old male for transport to the hospital after he stated that he wanted to kill himself. The patient's father pulls you aside and tells you that his son repeatedly has been in the hospital for suicidal statements but is then released and comes home and the whole cycle repeats itself. He is worried that one day his son will actually commit suicide and wonders if there is anything he can do to decrease the chance of this happening. In regards to the most common means by which people commit suicide, you should respond by saying:
 
  A) Lock up all of the household cleaning products since these are commonly ingested.
  B) The chance of him committing suicide is low since he has never actually attempted it.
  C) I would suggest gathering up all guns and removing them from the house.
  D) It would be best to get rid of all the beer, wine, and alcohol in the house.
