I just thought I would mention this lest someone actually bought
into the whole "history-of-mental-problems" argument concerning
Milosevic and family -- something that has been popularized by
the media throughtout the destruction of Yugo... Recall, that in his
groundbreaking study on suicides, Emile Durkheim categorized
suicides into different groups (e.g. Strain suicide, Altruistic suicide)
and then provided various reasons for persons taking their lives.
What he showed is that there's always the possibiliy a suicide in
no way connects to some mental defect within the individual, as
opposed some motivation or another related to one's social
environment. For example, a soldier may commit suicide to further
the cause of his fellow soldiers. A mother or father may commit
suicide out of fear of the child's safety (I'm sure this was common
during the WW2 for victims of the Nazis and their collaborators). In
other words, there are a 101 reasons why Milosevic's parents might
have taken their lives (if that's even the case, at all), least of which
relate to some mental defect or genetic predisposition to commit
suicide.
