Tyler grew up in a home with his dad and his dog where he was not always treated the best. His father would often take his anger out on him or his dog by yelling or sometimes getting physical with them⁵ ⁶
This led Tyler to experience some emotional breakdowns and he often found himself very angry or sad and would also go into fits where he let his emotions out in a violent way.¹⁸
Even though his behavior at home was strange, he felt that he needed others to experience the same feelings he does, so he tended to pick on other kids at school.¹⁸
Tyler's performance at school would be affected by all of his emotional turmoil as he would always get lower grades than his peers and never wanted to be at class.⁴
As Tyler grew older, he wanted to stay away from school and be more on his on. Without his father knowing, he would often skip school and turned to drugs as an outlet for when he felt sad or angry.³
Even he was aware of how bad his life choices have affected him, but yet, he refused to seek help from any medical professionals about the past trauma he was exposed to as it is the main cause for all of his behavioral issues.⁷
Yet, Tyler pushed forward in life and got himself a job, unfortunately, he did not like the company he worked for, his position, and even the fact that he had to come into work. The fact that he didn't like what he was doing left him feeling upset most days.
So when he would return home to his son and dog, he would lash out at them. Causing his son to get upset and his dog to become very scared. Even after all of these years, it seems Tyler is repeating the behaviors that his father exposed him to as a kid.²
