Neil neil is and indian buy who´s father puts a lot of pressure on. Before the spelling bee y ad been practicing something like 800 words a day!He also had a tutor that helped him study for the spelling bee whit german , french and other forgein languages that may appear on the spelling bee.Somehow the spelling bee is all he cares about , he feels that to win ,like if its a must!His dad puts a lot of pressure on him and I think that all that Neil really wants is to make his father proud of him and no disappoint him.I think that for Neil its really important to win because he really wants to make his father proud and not feel that he studied that much for nothing. Also because his grandfather payed a lot of money to many people in India to pray for Neil to win, so basically if he looses he will not only disappoint his dad but also his grandfather and many people in India that are praying from him to win.Last , I think that for Neil its very important to win because like to feel he finally was able to accomplish what he worked so hard for.

On one hand spelling bees are contests that put a big amount of pressure that shouldn't really be feeling that much pressure at that age. On the other hand spelling bees for some teenagers is their hobby and what the enjoy doing. Some teenagers prefer spending their times studying spelling words than doing sports and going to the movies , I think thats okay. We all have different hobbies and interests and since for many teenagers in the US.A spelling bee is one of them i think we should still keep on doing them. Still I do think that they should make the spelling bees a little less competitive and a bit less harsh on the kids , these are people that take it extremely seriously and put all their effort in it! Its so easy for them to loose , just 1 word wrong and their out!I do believe that we should still do spelling bees since their are some teenagers that really like it and like spending their time on it , but I do think that they should be lees harsh on them and put less pressure on them also , this way spelling Bee can continue and kids don't have to feel that devastated when they loose.
