BoBo There is one person who is so utterly different in almost every school that learning about the way they think is both an interesting and scary task. BoBo was that person. BoBo was a care-free student who never really showed interest in school. He has a huge physical stature. His behavior is pretty consistent. He has a lot of interesting features about both physical and personality attributes. BoBo was a student who was extremely different from his peers. He was 6’2 while most of the other boys and girls in his grade are not even close to being 6’. He has gigantic features e.g., size 14 feet, large hands, and a head bigger than a basketball. He is the definition of a giant compared to his peers. His stature is not something he isn’t …show more content…
He takes great pride in his outward appearance. His shoes and hair seem to be the place he takes the most pride in. In BoBo’s own words, “My shoe game is on point!!!” He has days where he styles his hair in a seemingly ridiculous style. He always talks about how he is the perfect borderline between too curly and not curly enough. He puts it into a ponytail of curly and extravagant tangles on occasions. Even though most people’s opinion is his hair looks like a mud pie. He still has so much self confidence that he will continue to style it like that despite public opinion His morality and values seem to aim more towards the fun aspect of life. He shows little regard towards getting good grades or taking responsibility for anything. He would much rather play video games and have fun with his brothers. However, he has extremely high values about protecting his family. His family seems to be the only thing he truly cares about. If anyone crosses path with them he can go into a rage that no mere mortal should ever be able to …show more content…
The only thing that he is willing to spend money on besides video games is shoes. Most students his age have that common interest, especially boys. However, they do not take it to the extreme that he has. He owns seveler 150$+ shoes. To him shoes are the most important part of an outfit. He will wear Jordan’s and a fruit of the loom T-shirt all in the same outfit. His attitude about school work is far from acceptable. He doesn’t care about any school work, or homework his teacher assigns. If he can’t finish it in the hour of allotted time given to him in the class, then he will simply not do it. He shows seemingly no care in his grades. He celebrates C’s and is okay with D’s. Many of the teachers believe he has a hidden intelligence that no one knows about. He just doesn’t have the desire to show it. His learning style is definitely hands on. The days that they play games in a class are days that he actually finishes his work and gets a decent grade. He seems similar in a way that he enjoys games more, but different due to the drastic the amount of difference it makes. It’s as if he shuts out any other type of work, but games he actually opens up and soaks in the knowledge. This is why teachers believe if he had the motivation he might actually be able to become a solid student. BoBo is an extremely intriguing person. I enjoyed every minute I got observing him and talking to him about
Because of his cultural background my father found my brother's poor performance in school incomprehensible. I too was puzzled by my brother's attitude towards school. He and I grew up in the same house with the same parents and the same set of values. Yet, he seemed to not care about school at all. For a long time, my family and I attributed my brother's C's in school and obvious inability to concentrate to laziness and a lack of motivation.
Bobo, also known as James Fuller Jr., was just a normal young boy. Bobo, a peer of McLaurin, came from a very desolate and poor household. Coming from the background he was from he was looked at as a lesser person by Melton. As children often do, they play. One day, James and Melton
... my classroom who always played on his cell phone, played games, and acted unprofessional in during school hours. He always plagiarized his essays in my English class and always received straight F’s and did not care one bit; this would be an example of a student who is not willing to be taught or educated. In fact, the student should not even go to the school if they are not willing to try and do their own work.
The main feature of Conduct Disorder, Criteria A, is a repeated and constant way of behaving that violates the rights of other people, or there are major age-appropriate violations of the norms of society, and three or more occurrences within the last twelve months, and one occurrence within the last six months (American Psychiatric Association, 2008). Jason meets Criteria A10, 11, and 12, Deceitfulness or Theft, because he burglarized a house across the street from where he was living, convinced his co-foster brother, Walt, to help him in the burglary, and stole his foster mom’s ATM card and withdrew $500 dollars. Jason meets Criteria A13, 14, and 15 for serious violations of rules...

...around the death of his friend, causing Big Boy to face the harsh reality that white people are murderous, no matter their sex. Big Boy cannot retain his innocence because after the death brutal murder of Bobo, he “had no feelings now, no fears. He was numb, empty, as though all blood had been drawn from him.”
When he went to this school he starting writing in the school paper. He earned some great experience doing this. He continued to write this paper all threw school. When he graduated Shortridge High he advanced on to a collage named Cornell. When he was at this collage he studied biology and chemistry. In future when he was talking about his studies and his attitude towards school. He said that he was a lazy and not a good student.
His characters attitudes are totally ruthless. They could give a shit if you were the cousin of the president or a nanny. They have a job to do and they do it. No holes barred, no questions asked, no thought given to actions or consequences. They are almost like robots, zombies of the underworld that have no emotions or respect for the value of life.

Lane A. Dean Jr’s girlfriend was one of these people. She does things because she feels it from her heart not because it is what God and society wants to see in a good person. She is pregnant before marriage, despite being Christian, but instead of giving up her baby to look good in society, she decides to keep it after birth, to “have it and love it” (228). She even puts zero obligations over Lane saying that she “releases him” and wishes him “joy and all good things” (228). She doesn’t just do deeds to look good, after all , she could have made Lane has equally responsible for the baby, but instead she set him free to finish his education and enjoy his life. Like Lane’s mother says she is “down to earth” and said one could tell because Sherri made it “evident in little ways” (225). Her actions come from the pureness of her heart and soul, she does little things to show the goodness in her heart and doesn’t believe in doing drastic good deeds to show society how she
A brain is always trying to please the adults around him. He suffers from a paralyzing fear of failure and will do almost anything within his power to avoid disappointing the adults that see potential in him. Generally speaking, the pressure the brain feels is almost entirely self-imposed and internalized. You wouldn’t know it by looking at him on the outside, but inside, the brain is freaking out. He’s constantly worried about the next test or the next semester. Much of these anxieties can follow him late into life if he can’t find a way to balance the chaos going on in his mind. He has a tendency to be overly obsessive and should failure show its ugly face, the brain can be utterly and completely devastated as a result. Hopelessness is the ultimate foe of anyone found in this categ...
Moreover, Kemper failed to exhibit commitment to institutional or prosocial activities such as engaging in school work or playing any sports so he didn’t invest time in these types of activities, which were essential to deviate from antisocial behaviour. Instead, Kemper would commit antisocial behaviour by mistreating cats and playing with their deceased bodies (Whyte, n.d., para. 6). Kemper also didn’t display involvement in socially acceptable activities, but involved himself with gloomy fantasies such as imagining about murdering his mother (Whyte, n.d., para. 3). Lastly, Kemper failed to have strong beliefs in the law because he disregarded the moral rules of society. For instance, Kemper exhibited animal cruelty at the age of 13 when he killed the family cat, which validates that Kemper wasn’t concerned about the moral rules of society and the legal system (Whyte, n.d., para. 3). Without these social bonds, Kemper displayed low self-control that compelled him to commit criminal activities. For instance, Kemper’s low self-control caused him to commit horrendous serial killings by murdering
Every person that has different characteristics that influence how they think, act, and build relationships. While some people are introverted, others are extroverted. Some people are strict and do not take risks, while others are carefree and free spirited. However, there are times where a person’s behavior becomes destructive, problematic, and maladaptive (Widger, 2003). The key to examining a person for a possible personality disorder is not if they have quirks, but if they display severe behavioral, emotional, and social issues. A diagnosis of having a personality disorders involves identifying if their extreme behaviors, emotions, and thoughts that are different than cultural expectations interfere with the ...
While roaming the hills around an isolated home, a young boy named Henry, displayed rather unusual characteristics associated with his behaviors. What seemed like a cute and innocent boy was nothing but a face of hidden evil. Henry was a very free-spirited and often wild 12 year old boy who enjoyed engaging in daring activities while experiencing adrenaline rushes. His behaviors and curiosities seemed to be limitless, to the point where it brought forth a bit of suspicion. At this age, these types of behaviors may seem “normal” for a young boy like Henry; behaviors that display some hyperactivity, and self-exploration. However, Henry’s attitude and behaviors took a quick turn as his real intentions and motives became ever so clear. Henry is a young boy who grew up in a rather large home, set on top of a hill, overlooking the ocean in the state of Maine. He comes from two loving parents, a mother and father, and has a younger sister who looks up to him. He also had a younger brother named Richard, who died a while back from “accidently” drowning in the bathtub. Despite the tragic loss, he seemed to have a stable family lifestyle.
He has rather few temper tantrums or rarely whines except when asking for “tamm tamm” from his mother. He is rather shy at first when meeting new people, but after a while he gets comfortable. He is quite persistent especially when addressing things he wants and tends to add some aggression to it. For example, when trying to reach for something beyond his reach, he will use any means necessary like his chairs or even trying to use his parents to climb and reach for it. He is not too concerned with failure and tends to abandon something that has proved too difficult to achieve. He is quite obedient as when his mother tells him “no” for the first time he will pretend to listen, but later returns and after his mother interferes again, he tends to move away and engage in another activity. He understands that the term “no” from his mother means it, he should not do that though, he looks at her rather confused whenever his mother says
