Often children do not act disrespectfully to an adult or other child unless they are provoked. If a child reads OFOtCN they may see how popular McMurphy is to the other patients and try to imitate his actions in hope of attaining everyone's attention. According to Education Digest, on child psychology, the article advocates, "Children who struggle academically or socially may believe that they're "bad" students and thus are not valued. They may use defiance as a way to gain a sense of personal importance"(46). The article clearly states how a child may act defiantly so everyone notices them, in the classroom. The strive for attention does not end in school either; a child still requests attention from their parents when they get home. Attention Deficient is an article that presents the life of "Peggy," more often known as the middle child who constantly endeavors for their moms' attention, to portray that "the circumstances are different, but also the same. Every child craves attention. Needs to be looked at and listened to"(Byrne 26). Children pursue attention and often when they do not receive enough they will do any deed excessively. Hence to prevent children from performing the abhorrent deeds in OFOtCN, in search of attention, the book should be banned from school
Since the beginning of social psychology, psychologist has been trying to analyze how people’s thoughts, feelings, and behavior are impacted by aggression. When an aggressive person gets frustrated or upset, social psychologist tracks down what exactly drives them to commit crimes, atrocities, or even abuse.

During the 1980s and 1900s, domestic violence was one of the most unreported crimes that involve females and males getting hurt and dying. Kicking, choking, killing, and saying brutal or despise words that could hurt the victims physically or emotionally are considered domestic violence. In fact, many victims are afraid to seek for help. According to “The Domestic Violence Resource Center (DVRC), women account for approximately 85 percent of all intimate partner violence, with women aged 20-24 at greater risk” (Batten, par.16). Most pregnant women are at risk as well. “But underlying approach is still one that assumes the perpetrators are men and the victims are woman” (Haugen, par. 1). Moreover, both males and females believe that domestic violence is a solution to their issues.
Manipulative behaviour is a dominant characteristic for people with antisocial personality disorder. When in hospital, a patient diagnosed with ASPD may use manipulation tactics on a nurse to alter protocols that will meet their own needs. This may have a negative impact on the hospital unit. In order to prevent the potential that the hospital unit may become compromised, a precise care plan must be implemented and followed by all staff members to manage unwanted behaviour. The nurse must be able to engage in clinical reasoning that will lead to the development of an effective care plan.
Throughout human history, violence, for the most part, has been a perpetual struggle we’ve faced. It does not discriminate against location, color, or creed, and it has an impact, lasting or not, on each of us at some point during our lives.

People in all social, ethnic, economic, or religious groups are affected by domestic violence; whether the couple is married, divorced, living together, or dating.
