It's a stupid question if you decide to make it one.

I don't think the people asking me these questions are stupid... I think it's an honest response to really horrible things happening in life... Good grief!!!

What's stopping them? Most likely evolution.

People who don't have the inherent will to live die out. So it's our genes that give us a healthy fear of dying.

So what's stopping them from ending their lives? The inability to kill themselves, because of their evolution.

If they're flawed enough to end themselves, their genes won't pass on.
