[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 130416, member: 1514"] This is quite timely because I truly believe Cory is either anti social, sociopathic, or dissocial personality disorder. There are subtle differences in the diagnostic criteria and its very hard to explain. There are a few areas in all three that Cory doesnt fit but there is one huge one that fits him to a T. Psychopathy really covers all three disorders but one of the things that is very scary (at least to me) is that [FONT=Arial]Without help, potentially psychopathic children will become adults who never remain attached to anyone or anything for long. They may end up living a "predatory" lifestyle, feeling little or no regret, and having little or no remorse - except when they are caught or about to be locked up. A psychopath is not necessarily a bad person. But they are prone to have problems with society, rules, expectations and relationships. There also doesnt seem to be a whit of treatment that can help a person like this unless they truly want to change and they never do unless its a way out of trouble in which case they are simply manipulating their world.
