[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 620860, member: 17720"] Thanks for the welcome. Basically what brought me here is my son, age 21. I call him the Evil Genius. He was the *perfect* child we never had to worry about, then he hit his teens and it all went south. He uses his intelligence to creatively avoid responsibility and manipulate other people into taking care of him so he can get high all night and sleep all day. He has destroyed relationships with everyone who liked him, loved him or tried to help him. He thrives on dangerous situations and high drama and is lucky he hasn't gotten into some *real* trouble (as in death or prison), though I suppose it is only a matter of time if he doesn't change. I could not make any sense out of what was going on until I started reading about sociopathic personality traits, then it was as if the pieces fell into place. I hope some personal growth does come out of this, as I don't really like some of the ways I have reacted to all of this. Again, happy to be here. [/QUOTE]
