[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 443101"] TL...so true. I think all of us here can relate to the idea that when there is a difficult child in the family it strongly influences the rest of each member of the family. It is impossible for it NOT to influence each other. I think it takes great effort and outside positive/helpful influences to turn that situation around. Many in the world of psychology feel that parents are often to blame when it comes to the personality disorders, but that I don't believe is a hard 100% fact. Certainly, there are cases where these things just happen ...people are born with disturbing personalities.... and then there are cases where it is sort of a weird combination of a tendency toward a certain personality and some inconsistent parenting. Then, there are some that are almost created. Not sure the parenting style was brought out in this case and not sure if it would have been really appropriate. Not sure if personality disorders would make someone incompetent to stand tria, but I strongly suspect that it would NOT be the case. She seemed fully aware of what she was doing.... Over the weekend, the audio tape of her speaking with- her mother was played and it was bothersome. Her mom was neutral, respectful (given the gross circumstances) and setting boundaries. And the girl was aggressive, disrespectful and unremorseful. I can't help but have some sympathy for that grandmother. [/QUOTE]
