Thank you..for now I'm just listening and hugging..when the time is right I will drop some reality on her..she will cry...and I will hug her some more..I just want it known, that I will not defend her blindly. She's created SOME of her own problems..BUT a few she most definately has NOT...You are in such a hard and unfair position. Priscilla certainly needs and deserves love & support right now but providing her with that doesn't mean that you have to say only the things that she wants to hear (I don't mean you should go behind her back and spill all here). Sometimes hearing the hard truth from someone that you know loves you no matter what is what it takes to move to a healthier state. P needs to know that even if her son is guilty that doesn't mean that she has to turn her back on him. Continuing to love I and seek help for him doesn't diminish her love for L or make her grief any less valid.

Very well said. Thank you.You are in such a hard and unfair position.

I agree with the others, you are a great friend and I wish everyone had a friend like you. The friends I have chosen to be a constant in my life are not the ones that always agree with me but that insist I look beyond what I see, debate situations, and always, always tell me the truth as they see it. Without that I couldn't have grown into the person I am today.Thank you..for now I'm just listening and hugging..when the time is right I will drop some reality on her..she will cry...and I will hug her some more..I just want it known, that I will not defend her blindly.

I will attempt to offer some clarification of diagnoses available to psychiatrists for children under the age of 18. First, there is oppositional defiant disorder generally a diagnosis for children under the age of 13. Next is conduct disorder which is used for children from 13 to 17. A set of criteria must be met in order to make either of these diagnoses.
These disorders and sociopathy can be found in the DSM-5 although I do not have a link it.
What mental health conditions affect children?
Children can experience a range of mental health conditions, including:
Anxiety disorders. Children who have anxiety disorders such as obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, social phobia and generalized anxiety disorder experience anxiety as a persistent problem that interferes with their daily activities.
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This condition typically includes a combination of issues, such as difficulty sustaining attention, hyperactivity and impulsive behavior.
Autism. Autism is one of a group of serious developmental problems called autism spectrum disorders that appear in early childhood usually before age 3. Though symptoms and severity vary, all autism disorders affect a child's ability to communicate and interact with others.
Eating disorders. Eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge-eating disorder are serious conditions. Children can become so preoccupied with food and weight that they focus on little else.
Mood disorders. Mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder can cause a child to feel persistent feelings of sadness or extreme mood swings.
Schizophrenia. This chronic mental illness causes a child to lose touch with reality (psychosis).

Valley Springs walking the murder scene, talking with witnesses. Justice doesn't get Saturdays off. With John Kennedy investigations.
Not sure if this was posted; I've been occupied with the Moore tornado disaster.
Me too. I'm not sure why "we" are trying to armchair diagnosis a young child that we know next to nothing about and is too young to be labeled with half the crap being thrown at him.
It would be much easier to diagnosis some of the adults in this child's life because they have proudly put their narcissism on public display.
No you couldn't "diagnosis some of the adults in this child's life". You've only guesses on how the family dynamics work. Further, a REAL (and not a "made up") diagnosis of anything (such as narcissism) takes a lot more than a few public statements after a major trauma. And I can hardly say what has been "displayed in public" to be "proudly displayed".
I need to figure out what I can/can't share.. or rather should or should'nt.
:sigh:Since as we know, Im completely biased. That, and knowing the P/B relationship history. It's a tough spot to be in because im torn between what my logic tells me, and being supportive to P..no matter what she believes...
