[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 409031, member: 84"] I agree that this post has been very enlightening and think it would be a good idea to have it archived. As although most of us aren't dealing with sociopathic/psychopathic behaviors......many of us do have difficult children that use manipulation and bully tactics to get what they want. And unfortunately when you're caught in the throes of that........it can be very difficult to see that that is what is actually going on. But I also have to say that some of us may in fact be dealing with a sociopath/psychopath and not be aware of it. Until those familiar with it here brought my attention to it concerning Katie.....while I knew something was terribly off and there was something serious going on.....I couldn't quite pin it down. Since then, I've been educating myself........and it's right on the money. I can even pinpoint red flags from her childhood visits........many red flags. But while Katie can be pushed into violence......it is only with someone who can't or won't fight back, like children.....but I could see her do it to the elderly. husband was my back up. But my kids knew I'd take them out far faster than husband. That is not to say that there weren't those moments when I could see them using all their self control to restrain themselves from physically lashing out. [/QUOTE]
