[QUOTE="Jena, post: 199502, member: 4514"] hi, Overall it comes down to I believe different states have different laws pertaining to this sort of thing. To use as an example, if a man comes home to find his wife in bed with-another (yes totally different scenario than a difficult child chucking chair at teacher lol), yet once it goes to trial his attny will fight on the issue that "it was heat of the moment", "crime of passion", stating that due to the pyschological detachment at the time "the husband did not know what he was doing", without any prior diagnosis's on record of his mental health history. I would imagine whether it be a school setting or an accident on road (which could be due to a side effect of a medication for a BiPolar (BP) person), that would come to light in whatever proceeding would than follow. It's a complicated question, and an interesting thought. Should people with mental disabilities be held accountable same as a person with no prior mental health record or diagnosis? You can just give an overall "get out of jail free card" to anyone with a mental disability of any sort, wow can you imagine what would be going on in the world........lol that would be the running excuse. Yet documented proof from a treating physician in any forum whether it be a school mtg., or a court room speaks for itself. I do not believe those with mental disabilities of any kind should be treated (in punishment of actions) as those without. Wow if you even go the other end, look at all the past serial killers they all had varying issues, domer, etc. they have tales from their childhood and i'm quite sure pyshciatrict records stating such horrors they themselves survived and boom look what they did. Yet there's alot of grey area there i'm totally taking this to another level and rambling......lol because their working on research to show that there is infact different dna make up that make them do what they do. ok i'll stop now.......i'm sure that made absolutely no sense at all :) [/QUOTE]
