[QUOTE="Lila256, post: 722543, member: 22431"] I had read about your experience when I was poking around. It was one of the things that let me know I was in the right place. (A silver lining, I guess!) It's such a sad situation. These kids go through things that no human being ever should, which is not their fault, and you try so hard to help them and to make up for all those things that happened that they didn't cause. But you are absolutely right, the damage is permanent no matter what the cause. It's just really heartbreaking to me. They deserved so much better. I also completely agree that my stepson is a psychopath (and several others that are involved on a personal level also agree), and unfortunately every day that passes proves that more and more accurate. His dad doesn't even want to answer the phone anymore. I think what really disturbs me in all of this is that we took all of the symptoms to his mental health supports (psychiatrist, psychologist, counselor, etc.) and not one person really put it together and took any sort of action to intervene at an early age prior to it getting violent. I realize there really isn't any largely accepted treatment for this type of thing, but an effort could have at least been made to mitigate and shape it. Or even understand it, so as parents we have a little bit more of a roadmap. Judging by the stories on this site, this is a widespread problem and it's just unacceptable. [/QUOTE]
