Flint Baughmen Eulogy

He became reclusive and antisocial, his parents fought and he felt abandoned by his classmates from being the new kid so he would escape by disappearing into the woods and killing animals. He also started to act out more at school, all because his parents started fighting and he had to adapt to his new life. One study by sociologist Arnold Arluke found that

It seemed to be a suicidal trip with the few things he decided to keep, the rest was abandoned or given away. Despite the highly wealthy life with parents who always gave him gifts and tried to show love. Many were blinded to the dark parts of his life, blinded about how he was raised and what kind of relationships he had with his
