[QUOTE="Mamaof5, post: 421061"] Actually, the study says that ALL human beings have some type of sociopathic tendencies. Most are better at controlling those tendencies and being ethic\moral people. There are plenty of sociopathic children and adults that cannot control the tendencies. I personally think it's everything to do with weak or strong impulse control skills. Either on a biological level or conscious\subconscious level or even both. One can spot a pathological liar and a sociopath if they know what to look for and it's not hard to learn how to look for it. Even when they have "passed" a lie detector test or two. It's micro expressions you look for, facial expressions that happen in a universal stance (7 universal micro expressions no matter culture, religion, color or creed or anything, they are biologically part of being a human) in 1 \25th of a second. With it are things called manipulators and illustrators (body language, movements, tone of voice, credence of sentence and much more). I think ALL parents or parents to be should take a few courses in micro-expression and body language. Not just for the bad behaviors but for the good ones too. Being able to recognize all of them gives a leg up on both catching something before it goes nuclear melt down tantrum or catching a good deed\behavior or happiness\joy etc to praise and congratulate. It's a rather interesting science. Look up Paul Ekman (the father of micro expression sciences) - there's a lot to be had with this science. [/QUOTE]
