I first cut when I was 17. Looking back, I wish that somebody would have noticed, spoke up, and made me talk about it. I was never "that serious" - I never needed stitches and I only cut deeper than scratches 2 maybe 3 times.
I know that it sucks to lose your privacy when you're in High School, and it's easy to forget that your parents ask because they love you. People pry when they care, not when they're indifferent.
