Not OP but here you go. I work with young people and have had suicide prevention training multiple times, this is a recurring mantra that not asking about it is much worse than asking.

Thanks. I wonder if this is limited to a therapeutic context and if the same is true for third party mentions of suicide. But I'll look around for that by myself.
