"According to Elkind, Eduardo exemplifies the personal fable aspect of adolescent thinking.

The personal fable is an observable facts held by many adolescents where their feelings and emotions are not the same as others and more enormous than those of others. With personal fable, adolescents think that they are unique and special, and therefore incapable of being wounded.
