I would say his father – he didn’t give him any attention when he came home from school and had being bullied, he doesn’t ask how it goes in school. Inside he was hurt, he was holding it all back and suddenly he exploded. He got this idea that he would shot at the school and then his friends said that he was a pussy and wouldn’t do it – and that was the final push – he couldn’t stand it anymore, it became too much. “Warning” is the headline because this story about Andy Williams is a warning to all those who bullies young student, because sometime it can become too
Georgeann begins to cry and explains to her teacher that she is defending Rose-Johnny’s honor. Georgeann becomes overwhelmed because of the fight she just encountered with the mattox boy and hiding the fact that she had any communications with her, she runs to the Welch store to visit rose-Johnny. From hanging out with Rose-Johnny many problems have occurred such as Mary Etta, Georgeann’s sister getting attacked by one out of the four boys of the mattox boys who georgeann fought. Mary Etta’s favorite dress that she worn the day of her attack was torn off and stained with dirt. Her face was swollen and there were marks on her neck.
He was also very jealous, which I strongly believe led to him not helping Hassan. As the story unfolded, I noticed that Babba was more interested in Hassan. Amir wanted to be in Hassan’s spot. Amir doesn’t realize the true meaning of life until later on in the story. From not helping Hassan the night of the rape, led to extreme guilt.
It’s not that they are stupid; it’s just that their pride makes them do stupid stuff, as to admitting to their mistake and telling the truth. Also having to much pride can cause you to commit to peer pressure. For example, a teenager who hasn’t ever smoked in his life gets peer pressured into smoking, in that instance his pride would have gotten the best
He was a freshman at Heath High School in Heath, KY, who was constantly picked on.

Rice's contract was terminated by the Ravens on September 8, 2014 following the release of an additional video of the incident. Rice was unquestionably persecuted for the assault against his then fiancé, now wife. Rice’s actions and the rising video showing the incident, resulted him to lose his job not only to being a running back for the Baltimore Ravens, but the whole league itself. No other team in the NFL wants to sign Rice to their team because of his assault which has a left a permanent bad look on his career. Society’s response to the persecution was very normal to any case that deals with a well known person or even a person who isn't well known, that has been assaulted with violence.
Both girls did very bad things to one another, but it is best to see the evidence from the opposing side first so a decision can be made on who is more of a victim. Elaine was a huge target for Lysandra’s anger to be disposed upon. Elaine won the poetry contest fairly by a meritocratic poem about a “shipwreck.” (128) In return, Lysandra ignored Elaine ever since she lost. Elaine tried to be to a good sport about winning, but even Lysandra’s family does not respect her anymore. Her father said “You!” and shut the door right in her face.
I feel bad and sad for the victims, because a woman can’t do anything when a man punches her. “Abusers often attempt to control and isolate victims in an effort to guard the secret of abuse and because of their jealously of any attention their partners may give or receive from family, friends, or coworkers” (Gagné 19). As the time passes, women will have bruising, bleeding, and scars that will never heal. A man hits a woman probably because he wants to act “macho”. He might be drunk or he only does it because he likes it.
Characterizations of big mouth and ugly girl. There are two main characters in this book. Big Mouth is Matt - a high school boy who tends to say things without thinking first about what he is saying. An offhand remark he makes about blowing up the school is overheard and reported, resulting in his suspension, dealing with the police and a lot of negative publicity for him and his family. Even when it is decided that he did not really mean what he said he runs into a lot of students at school who now hate him, especially after his family decides to sue the school.
