I can only imagine one angle that might drive someone to consider suicide after reading TGD. Perhaps this kid read the book, believed what it told him about his religion, but due to his (obviously very devout) family, couldn't bear to 'come out' or live with his family resenting his beliefs. I wouldn't say that it's Dawkin's problem though, especially considering he dedicated a significant section of his book to people afraid to come out, and even included several organizations to help people in that exact situation.
Not to mention how Dawkins specifically explains how an atheistic viewpoint doesn't make life bleak or meaningless, but a beautiful opportunity to be cherished and enjoyed.
Either way, Dawkin's covered his ass.
