    Who's To Blame Analysis

    One of the factors that may lead the first grader to take this action could be the way his parents contribute to the child's life. As I was reading the short article, it mentions that for no one was a surprise that the 6 year old killer was being raised in a neglectful and abusive environment. Analyzing this situation from my point of view, I think they were many factors that lead the child to the point of wanting to take control of the problem in his hands. One of those factors could be the abandonment of the parents. Why? Probably the child tried to communicate to his parents about the situation at school but the parent’s lack of their roles as parents lead the child to take the wrong action toward the problem. We may ask, why…

I was really afraid to tell anyone because they would threaten me and…
