Big Bully

Big Bully!
The article is definitely one of many harsh real-life examples on how teenagers turn out to be if they are felt neglected and lack the attention they need from their family. Parents have a misled perception that teenagers are old enough to look after themselves and are therefore able to take charge of their lives. However, they fail to realize that its through their teenage phase that they are most vulnerable.

As for the Big Bully, he was neglected by his parents as they are busy working. He also has a brother who does well in his academics. Inferiority complex sets in. This causes him to hate himself for being "useless" and feeling "unwanted". These feelings grow in him and to fill up that void, he commits acts of bullying, instiling fear among students and commits acts of bullying to feel respected and seek attention.

It is only through an unfortunate incident that did he realize that what he was doing was wrong and hurtful. It was only because of one mistake, he was thrown out of school and his parents were upset over his actions. Eventually, he did realize his mistake and repented in due time.

However, there are many real life stories out there that are far off worse. Therefore, we hope parents do pay due attention to their children, especially during their teenage years. It is only through constant support and love, teenagers will feel confident and have a high self-esteem to pursue their future endeavours without much difficulty.
