My daughter is 16 years old, and you're going to laugh, but I'm seriously worried about her and the way she thinks. She's always been very independent minded and intelligent, but I don't think she's putting those traits to good use. She has no empathy with ANYBODY. When she heard on the news about a man going on a killing spree by running pedestrians over with an SUV, she found that funny. She doesn't see why people cry over hungry children. She steals, lies, and never feels any guilt whatsoever. She actually stole a wallet from a man in a wheelchair! She says the only reason she would never murder anybody is because it's illegal and she doesn't want to go to prison. She is OBSESSED with the movie Natural Born Killers (I found an online blog she was trying to keep from me - saying Mallory and Mickey were the perfect couple.) Also obsessed with Grand Theft Auto and guns...for the "power" they hold. She has never had friends. I tried grounding her, but is it a mental illness??
