Beaten, hit, out casted, being alienated from society: all of these things create antisocial behavior and mental health problems. Being antisocial means not being able to fit into society and not being able to create healthy and lasting relationships. Having mental health problems means sometimes you can not tell the difference between right and wrong. Also, it can cause depression, behavioral problems and can cause the bullied to become the bully. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs explains one of the most important steps to self happiness and self actualization is needing to feel like you belong and to feel loved.

When children are bullied they have a risk to develop health problems, “ Bully- victims have been found to have the greatest risk of psychological and psychosomatic symptoms, suicidal ideation, school and interpersonal dysfunction, externalizing behavioral problems and alcohol use” (Yen.2014). Children should not have to feel this way from their peers, but the sad thing is this happens everyday. When this happens the bullied become the bully and continue the cycle of abuse. Since victor bullies the monster and constantly rejects him the monster develops suicidal tendencies and he develops suicidal tendency;s and starts to hate himself, “... my form is a filthy type of yours more horrid even from the very resemblance. Satan had his companions, fellow devils, to admire and encourage him, but I am solitary and abhorred” (Shelley, 1994).

When the monster is victor Frankenstein does not fulfill those needs, “At the love and belonging level the child needs others to love and to provide him with a sense of belonging. At this level, some sort of family stability is needed in order for the child to invest love in someone else” (Minton.2008). Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs proves that children in order to develop loving relationships need to be accepted by their creator or at least have a loving person in their life that takes on a parental role and teaches them the basic rules of society.

The need to be loved drives the monster to make irrational decisions to get those needs fulfilled. The driving need of all of these basic needs that are not fulfilled by Victor Frankenstein led to all the destruction that the monster causes. The need for love makes the monster desperate for the companion for a mate, “You must create a female for me, with whom I can live in the interchange of those sympathies necessary for my being. This you alone can do; and I demand it of
