In the story, Cass did a lot of stupid things because people accuse her of being pretty.(“People are always accusing me of being pretty. Do you really think I’m pretty?”) And she hurt herself several times by “running long hatpin through her nose”, driving pins under her eyes, trying to cut her throat, and lastly, committing suicide.
People always tell themselves and sometimes other people to not to care about what other people say. But in reality, we are all under the influence of other people, sometimes we even care about the joke that your friend told you. And we start to act differently, different from who we truly are, just trying to be the “perfect” one from other people’s perspective.
We only live our life once, and sometimes we have to do something that is “required”, like going to school. AS Nobody would ever know when he/she will be gone, it could be 80s, it could be now, so the first priority is to live your life wonderful, and make yourself happy. With the pressure from outside, you can hardly find the peace in your heart, because “other people” will always find something on you that is not perfect, and they will zoom out your weakness until they break you. Btw the suicide rate in Canada was increasing by around 11% each year in the past 5 years. Just like this pic says (...), we dont have to take shit from other people, if you think you are right, then your right!
