[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 539675, member: 3419"] Methuselah, I've been reading a lot about sociopathy and it is definitely brain wiring. You can definitely teach these kids rules, so that they can function in society. But it is estimated that between 1% and 3% of corporate CEOs are sociopaths, which actually helps them in their jobs. IOW, if you have to lay off 20,000 workers, it's a biz decision and you won't lose one wink of sleep. on the other hand, you can do insider trading and end up in jail. It's a spectrum, just like bipolar and autism. But the differences do show up on brain scans. Hmm ... new kitchen floor or MRI ... that's a tough call ... Anyway, many, many hugs. I can hardly imagine how exhausted you are. I mean, I'm exhausted with-one kid like that, who is a "maybe." You must be totally worn out. Just a few more yrs, if you're lucky ... [/QUOTE]
