[QUOTE="donna723, post: 408224, member: 1883"] You may be right about the "labels" but they did point out that this little boy was a very extreme case. I found the whole episode absolutely chilling and I can't even imagine having to live the way that family did with that child. At one point it was so bad that the father had to move with to a different location with their younger child. I think the show did a very good job in pointing out that some young children CAN have very serious mental illnesses. There's a tremendous amount of ignorance out there. I personally know people who refuse to believe that a child could have a mental illness! They claim it's all the fault of bad parenting or neglect or a lack of discipline. They just have no idea!
