A Child 's Life Under Traditional Circumstances

Marc Lepine, a 25 year old boy entered the corridors of Montreal's École Polytechnique University and started separating boys and girls. He then opened fire and killed 14 girls (The Montreal Massacre – Gunman massacres 14 women, 1989). Looking into Marc’s case deeply and studying his childhood reveals that his actions can be significantly explained using psychological theories such as Miller and Dollard’s Four Stage theory, the idea of lacking empathy and Bowlby’s and Ainsworth’s attachment theory. This paper not only depicts the effect of the psychological deviant behaviours but also its connection to above mentioned theories. Steps have been taken to take this

The understanding of how a criminal develops in society has always been up to debate amongst criminologists. Their objective is to analyze and comprehend criminal behavior, however, the conclusion of whether or not a criminal is born or made has yet to be established. Society tends to pity the victims of a crime and dehumanize the criminals. Their identity becomes completely defined by their immoral actions and the human behind the crime is utterly forgotten. Many criminologists believe that the reasoning behind the motivation to do such crimes is deeply rooted in the criminal’s past and upbringing. Prior to committing a crime, the now ‘criminal’ was once also a naive and innocent child born into society. During these adolescent years, a child

Relationship affects how you feel about yourself and how you deal with things that happen. A positive relationship with children are more likely to make them feel happy and satisfying while, a negative relationship with children impact them with fear, anger and sadness. Though “Parents' Day” by Sharon Olds focuses on the admirable side of the parents and “Say You Love Me” by Molly Peacock focuses on the miserable, awful side of the parents, both poems uses imagery, figurative language (simile) and tone to bring richness and clarity to their texts.

The three simple words “I love you,” are words which we all need to hear. These words are magical words, but yet they are hard to say and often hard to receive. A lot of this goes back to the family. When a baby isn’t properly nurtured and loved, he/she is more than likely to grow up struggling to give or receive love. We must make sure that these three magical words are said and expressed within

Ted Bundy was born November 24, 1946, in Burlington, Vermont. Theodore “Ted” Bundy was raised by his grandparents. Eleanor Cowell, Ted’s mom was twenty-two and unmarried when she had Theodore. To hide the fact that Theodore was an illegitimate child, he was raised as the adopted son of his grandparents and was told that his mother was his sister. Bundy’s mom moved to Tacoma, Washington a few years later and married Johnnie Bundy and had several children together. Ted grew an interest on disturbing and horrifying depictions of death or injuries on things. At the age of 3 Bundy mesmerized knives. He was very shy and intellectual at school but very bad with peers. As he got older, as a teenager his darker side became more visible. Years later, Bundy went to college and attended University of Washington. He then met a wealthy, pretty young woman from California and fell in love with her. She had everything that he wanted money, class, and influence. He was flattened by their breakup. Around 1974, Bundy became more seemingly confident in social and political matters. He graduated from University of Washington with a degree in psychology in 1972. and had been accepted to law school in Utah. On 1974 Bundy then moved to Utah to attend law school. Bundy’s breakup caused him to only kill college girls that looked like his ex girlfriend. All the victims were attractive with long black hair. He usually raped his victims before killing them.

Children who fail to form a secure and loving relationship with their caregivers are believed to experience a range of issues including emotional, behavioral and social problems, which contribute to the antisocial personality disorder (Levy at al, 2004). In addition, Ted’s cousin usually teased him and called him a bastard. His cousin even cruelly showed his birth certificate (Crime Feed Staff, 2015). Ted Bundy had said that: “ I didn’t know what made people want to be friends. I didn’t know what made people attractive to one another. I didn’t know what underlay social interactions (Biography,2017).” Even until he was a adult, he could still not have close relationship and he still failed to understand what interpersonal relationships were about (Michaud et al, 1999). The disability to form close relationships may resulted as the failure relationship between he and his mom. In one of the interview with Ted Bundy, he said: “ We didn’t talk about real personal matters. Certainly never about sex or any of those things. My mom has trouble talking on inmate, personal terms. There’s this logjam things in her that she doesn’t open up and explain (Crime Feed Staff, 2015).” It may not be the total reason for it but it can be the reason of causing unhealthy adult relationship.

Theodore “Ted” Bundy was born in Burlington, Vermont on November 24, 1946, and later executed by the electric chair on January 24, 1989, after being convicted of a serial murder, rapist, and necrophiliac. Bundy brutally murdered and sexually assaulted 30 women but many believe that number to be higher. He would use his charm to lure these women, before engaging in sexual assault and murdering them.

“Discovering Love” is an article about the definition of love and the different aspects, such as how it works and where you get it. Developmental psychologist Harry Harlow is the main contributor to this study. Harlow was particularly interested in how early life experiences, specifically interaction with one’s mother or primary caregiver, impact an individual’s ability to love and be loved by others later in life.

Theodore Robert Crowell, also known as Ted Bundy, was born on November 24, 1946 in Burlington, Vermont. Eleanor Cowell, Ted’s mother, was twenty-two years old and unmarried when she had him. Ted’s father left Eleanor before Ted was born and there is no concrete proof on who Ted’s father really was. Eleanor being an unmarried mother was very upsetting to her parents, as they were very religious and did not believe in unmarried pregnancies so Eleanor delivered Ted at a home for unwed mothers in Vermont, later bringing Ted to her parents’ home in Philadelphia. To hide Ted being an illegitimate child, he was

Child trauma is an essential factor in future development. Sociological explanations for the existence of serial killers maintain that environmental factors are possibly the most influential and very often permanently affect the later development of a child (1991). As examined in Chapter 1, family environment has significant consequences on child Sears development. Apart from this, peer relationships can also affect the level of growth of social, cognitive, emotional and physical development (Dodge, Lansford et al. (2003). According to American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (2012), peers can influence children’s lives. In this chapter, peer relationships and the school environment will be examined to shed some light on the phenomenon of

Even Bundy was raised to believe that his grandparents were his birth parents and his mother was his older sister (Biography, n.d., para. 1). Despite this deception, Bundy stated in an interview that he grew up in a wonderful home with two dedicated and loving parents (Fatal Addiction, n.d., para. 4). Even with this alleged nurturing environment, Bundy was not very social when he was young; he preferred to be alone a majority of the

He usually brutally beat, rape, and murder those women without any reason. Ted Bundy was untruthfulness, insincerely, and lacking empathy. Bundy was unable to have an interpersonal relationship because he did not understand the intrapersonal

The love between a parent and child is unconditional. It comes straight from the heart. The bond between a parent and child is something that only a parent can really understand. It starts before the child is born and will last a life time. Parents want to protect their child from any kind of harm. From the day the child is born, the mother and father will be the one that the child will depend on. The parents will be the one the child relies on whenever the child gets hurt, needs help, needs a shoulder to cry on,
