[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 742506, member: 18958"] No. She is not an accomplice because she has made a strong boundary which she is keeping. She has no intention of re-thinking it. What purpose does it serve to refer to smithmom as an accomplice? Yes. You are correct in part. That the ASPD diagnosis can't be given before 18. But the diagnosis is a "precursor" only in approximately one third of the teens/children so diagnosed. As a licensed mental health professional you know that you cannot diagnose somebody through hearsay who you have never met. We have heard a few anecdotal statements, relayed by a distraught mother who loves her son. We need on this forum to have compassion and a sense of responsibility for the people who come here for support and information. And if we are professionals we require restraint to temper the impact of the information and power we can wield. Because it can be dangerous, cause hurt and even be misleading or wrong. [/QUOTE]
