Firstly, the image contains a group of derogatory words and phrases shaped in form a hand around his neck as if it was about to strangle him. The boy is suffocating through the abusive words used for him like moron, useless, worthless. The word forming the hand illustrates a sense of power and control. The background behind the child is a combination of white and grey color which is often associated with depressive and saddened mood.
