SARAH VINE: Molly Russell, a schoolgirl, would have turned 19 if she hadn't taken her own life in 2017. I'm currently in the same situation as my own daughter, whether at college or in her first career, or perhaps going back to university after a year of travelling or working abroad. Excited and trepid in equal measure, first serious relationship, first time away from home. Traipsing around Ikea's duvet covers and fake pot plants, living off beans on toast, drinking too much at the student bingo night, and getting a stupid tattoo. Instead, she will remain a 14-year-old girl in school uniform, a girl with an unsure smile and whose life was cut tragically short. For those she may have been, and also for her family, she breaks the heart. But there is also rage. Rage and agony over the injustice of a world where children like Molly - children of innocent young souls - are exposed to things far beyond their years and emotional maturity.
