If you weighed in at 455 the day you got to bootcamp, you wouldn't whine about the drill instructor being heartless for calling you fat or not caring about anyone's feelings, so if you would do that with some stupid kid in headphones, you're only doing it because you think this weak ass kid has no right to call you fat, even if you wouldn't lose the horrible temper you claim to have on the drill instructor the same thing.
The kid's real crime was being stuck in a stupefied state of detached, surround, noise-cancelling audio land instead of reality when he was confronted, like it was okay to be as far removed as he was from participating in reality (or telling the girl she was a fat ass personally instead of texting it to his friend). Boot camp isn't the kind of place the fat kid would make the person using the f word (which isn't even a curse word) the odd man out.
A good place for people experiencing adultification and many other disorders.
So he/she was experiencing more adultification and felt that he/she needed someplace more comfortable and secure, bootcamp sounds like the kind of place for him/her, a regimented, secure, comfortable place to be.
