1. The point of view used in the story only reveals Brian's thoughts and feelings, not showing us deeply any other character and what are their motivations, actions and thoughts. In that case, we can get to know Brian deeply and have sympathy for his actions.
2. Brian is a traumatic person who has had many sad moments. If the author used the point of view in first person, with Brian telling his own story, this could generate an exaggerated and biased narration. This is because for us, what has gone wrong is always much greater than we imagine. A third-person point of view, however, limited, can present Brian's facts and thoughts as they really are, impartially and let the reader make his own conclusion. Furthermore, the third-person point of view presents a reliable narrator, the first-person point of view does not present a reliable narrator.

In a far-reaching decision, the Court essentially decided that schools may limit student expression (such as enforcing dress codes) if there is a legitimate concern that such expression will be disruptive to the learning environment or violate the rights of others.
