Concerned About Our Youth

Today I heard the tragic news of a family friends 12 year old boy found dead after playing the Choking Game.  http://www.news10.net/storyfull2.aspx?storyid=17738  

How does a 12 year old find out how to play such deadly games?  How does this happen to such a young soul?  All though I have no children of my own, I'm a very concerned Aunt of 10 nieces & nephews and 11 Great nieces & nephews.  How do we, as adults, discuss this with our youth without getting the usual "I Don't Know" answers?  What are some signs to look for if we suspect a child may be playing this game?
