What impresses Artest most is his bad temper. In fact, all this stems from his impatient father and miserable childhood. In June1979165438+1October 13, Artest was born in Queensbridge, new york. He has lived in the shadow of violence since he was a child. Once, a workman had an argument with his father Artest. Artest rushed up to pick him up and slapped him hard. He also witnessed his father beating his mother many times. 13 years old parents divorced. Under the long-term influence of his father, Artest's temper is very similar to his father's. Once a child provoked him in the school coffee shop, and he grabbed the child by the neck. Whenever someone laughs at him, he knocks him down with one punch, even his cousin. "I think it is the collapse and disintegration of the family that makes the child's temper moody." Old Ron Artest felt guilty, so when Ron Artest was 8 years old, his father sent him to an anger control treatment center. Knowing that this energetic boy who likes to shout all the time has no special sports, the doctor suggested Artest to play basketball, hoping that he could vent his inner anxiety and anxiety through this intense exercise. Basketball makes Artest happy, makes his life richer and more exciting than before, and makes him the darling of the school, but his grumpy anger is still everywhere. In high school, Artest was still yelling at his much older players.
