Is it because of the way they are brought up or is it because they feel insecure, isolated from society?

A common misunderstanding is that anti-social is non-social. Anti-social is the kid that has violent tendencies, is destructive, and gains amusement from others pain. Non-social is the kid that sits in the corner wanting to be ignored. Both can be the product of upbringing as well as genetics. My brother and I were brought up by the same parents in the same environment, yet he can walk into a room and be the life of the party but I have trouble just walking into the room.

its because its the way they are brought up, The parents maybe are anti-social so they think they can raise their kids that way, Ha I remember when I was a young girl at age 10 I wanted to be friends with this girl, and she was friends with me in school, but never after school or on weekends, And here we found out that her parents were so anti unsociable that they hated the school they hated the place were they lived and stuff so they moved

It's how they're brought up...
They've done studies on infants and toddlers that show the ones who DON't get loved and touched a lot with genuine affection actually have physical growth problems, as well as behavioral ones...
"Love"(holding, hugging, paying attention) it turns out, is not only a good way to help ensure a kid has a chance to be that way too, it's vitally necessary to ensure they're overall health and mental character.
Without love...
A human being goes "bad..."

Personally, the point in my life when I was very anti-social I was very depressed, there were a lot of things going on at home I had no control over. I was scared and hurt and I didn't want anyone to see that.

Many times they are called Anti-social when they are not. Anti means against. A shy child, or an introvert is not against anything. They are simply content with their smaller social circle and themselves. Just because the Primates are very social doesn't mean that we have to be.

My thoughts and personal experience say it is formed the first years or even months of a child's life. When you have a father that believes that holding a child will make a sissy of that child, that is the beginning. A mother wants to pick her child up, and A father says leave him alone. That's the beginning.
Humans are social animals, they need to have human contact all through growing up.
There are four boys in our family, when my oldest brother was born, my father was in the Korean war, he missed the first two years of his life, he grew up around my mother and her family, always being held, he learned how to socialize with other people.
When myself and my two other brothers were born, my father was there, he was one of those, don't pick him up or he'll be a sissy, us three grew up in allot of silence, not much physical contact, not learning proper social behavior. We are all 50ish now, knowing that and looking over our lives, I can really understand the differences those first years made.
My parents have passed away, and their is so much anger and hatred inside of me.

It might be because of the way their parents are raising the. Most children are not anti-social, but some are. In fact most young children in our society, are way to social.

I was anti-social growing up because I wanted people to come to me and make a big deal out of me without me doing anything to deserve their attention. My older sister had all the relatives and church people 'ooh-ing' and 'ahh-ing' over her all the time, and nobody came up to me and smiled and said anything - it was like I was invisible or something. So I just learned to disappear at family gatherings and I shut up at church when my sister was around. It's not how I was brought up, it's just me reacting to how I was treated by small-minded people who kissed my sister's butt without recognizing the witch she truly could be when she thought people weren't looking.

Because they feel rejected by the society and its rules.
