[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 641631, member: 18366"] I just had, for the first time EVER, my therapist ask me who in the family my sociopath daughter reminded me of. When asked that question I had an immediate reaction of her behaving like my maternal grandmother. All those years I beat my head against the wall blaming myself and asking myself what I did wrong for her to turn out this way and in the end the answer is it's in her DNA. Just wanted to share so maybe you can begin to think outside the box (of it's me) and maybe that knowledge of who the children's actions reflect will allow yourself to dial down the self-blame. Once you let up on the self blame maybe you can distance yourself just enough to make better decisions of what best meets the needs of your children. If they need to leave the house and go into programs for more help than you can give, so be it. Just remember it can very well be nothing you did and everything to do with what DNA they were born with. [/QUOTE]
