I am doing research and would love for some additional thoughts and opinions on this subject. It is said that children will not be labeled these diagnoses, but yet how can we help them if so many of the warning signs are either ignored or not diagnosed until after the child is 18 or older? How can we stop this pattern? Do these children have to kill (things or people) before they are able to be identified or is there a better way ....?Case in point... A child who shows no remorse, lacks responsiblity, refuses to put effort into positive things (but will put in effort into lying and denying), purposefully "eggs" others on to see responses, refuses to acknowledge others thoughts or feelings, is distructive and purposefully will break and destroy things... Are these not some of the characteristics that lead to the previous diagonsises? So we go back to the original question. Why does a child on the path to being a sociopath or psychopath have to kill before being diagnosed and treated?
