The lesson for future generations
I imagine that, given the circumstances, being in the news about anything prompted some people to consider their options. A pair of 12 and 13-year-olds promptly surpassed this record. This story became prominent after Alfie decided to speak out. He recalled his experience and wanted to teach other youngsters what he had learned from it.
He was positive that this event had altered his life forever. He thought the world would treat him better because he was mentally broken. Since then, his life has been far out of the way to consider a good life.
