There are many young aged kids and teens who experience bullying, some of them bullied for their appearance, some for their popularity status, and others surprisingly let themselves. However, it’s pretty doubtful anyone really knows why a kid would let themselves be bullied. Author Gary Soto developed a short story called “Fear” designating bullying with no specific theme but made to feel the anxiety or agitation of its presence of danger, pain, and evil. This author's breathtaking story is about a young 5th-grade boy named Frankie T. (F.T) with many things gone wrong in his family/life. Those things turned him to be a bully and later someone who would drown their own brother in a pool, and beat a woman with a lengthened pipe in a burglary years later. Frankie T. is an interesting character that can be better understood by examining his Character Traits, Contributing Factors, and his Motivations.

One topic I found interesting was the one about Bonnie and Clyde. I've heard about them but I never heard their story. Reading it in Kyjuan Martin’s infographic created a deeper meaning of the story to me. I learned that Bonnie was very smart. She had great grades and was “amongst the brightest of her peers.” Her family raised her as a Christian and so she has always been one. Clyde, on the other hand, had a life of the opposite. He would have died as a child due to not having much to eat but his parents gave up on their farming business and searched for something that gave them more money. His life was hard but he found his safe place in playing the guitar and saxophone. Later, his brother created a criminal out of him. He was sent to a prison

This section of celebrities, for Gabler, have a story which the people are interested in and are willing to follow. It does not matter whether they are good or evil in their personal lives until they have something fascinating to share. Taking an example of O.J. Simpson , who was an athlete and then turned into an actor, is well known although he was involved in a murder because people are prone to follow those who have an thrilling journey, with ups and downs, without considering the character of the

Not only has the media created celebrity heroes they have made then seem untouchable. For example, Ray Lewis superstar linebacker of the champion ship team Baltimore Ravens. Lewis portrayed as a staunch, Christian, and an example for other to follow. This stands in contrast to the same person who was charged with homicide in 2000 after a club brawl in Atlanta left two men dead (Bisciotti,S 2013). The charges against Lewis were ultimately reduces as part of a plea deal. Families of the victims received over one million dollars in compensation from Lewis. Lewis has been a role model since this incident. It goes to prove that although everyone can change their lives, the label of hero, is too readily dished out to athletes and sports figures.

This scene also explains Bonnie’s following actions in two ways. First is that she understands exactly how Clyde must have felt in prison when they later meet, establishing an immediate bond between them. The second is that, when Clyde tells her that he cut off two of his toes to get out of a work detail, she believes him for the man of action he portrays himself to be , (“Boy, did you really do that.”). This compares favorably with her desire to rise above her own dull circumstance and take action

Also prominently featured in the novel, the Great Purge negatively affected society. Fear and brutality reigned while logic and decency disappeared. Fear held an important position throughout the novel and in the real historical events the story is based off of. When the police came to arrest Rubashov in the beginning of the novel, the other residents of the house were afraid. Wassilij “panted with fear,” on page 5. A woman had yelled after the men had started banging the door, but stopped abruptly after Wassilij shouted, “‘Be quiet…Here is Authority.’ (7)…The house was silent after the one shrill woman’s cry, but they had the feeling that all inhabitants were awake in their beds, holding their breath (8).” Everyone in the house remained quiet to avoid trouble for themselves. Richard also illustrated this fear through his heavy stammering when a bodyguard of the regime was close (39). Another important instance of fear occurred as Michael Bogrov was led away for execution—he shouted for help, screamed, whimpered, and hung like a doll (144). Hare-lip—Professor Kieffer’s son—provided one of the more significant instances of fear. While in the third hearing with Rubashov and Gletkin, Hare-lip had a haunted gaze, trembling upper lip, a white face, and a sunken head—he “quivered as though struck by a whip” and “in his eyes appeared the flickering of naked animal terror” (200-210). He was terrified and only gave this testimony due to a desire to stay alive. The book mentioned that
