[QUOTE="DDD, post: 568690, member: 35"] One news segment about mental illness had a truthful ring toit. An expert stated that parents most often know that their young adult child has serious mental issues but that they are not able to impose help since the child is an adult. Then he (or a cohort on at the same time) stated that most of these murderers are either teens or young adults and that the school systems Nationwhide "could" have a psychological test offered to all students in hopes of providing help to those who seem to need it. Brief discussion followed. One of the positive aspects of the idea was that the student would be speaking/testing with a caring stranger...not a hated teacher or a family doctor or the parents. It seemed to me that their "might" be some merit to the idea. The other thing that is catching my attention is "he seemed like a nice kid who just preferred to be alone and not with others". WHAT? Almost all of our difficult children want nothing more than to be with others and like others. How naive. DDD [/QUOTE]
