I thank you for the honesty. Your mother should win a parenting award, but I think having you be a successful adult is a big one.

The movie “Let’s Talk About Kevin” really disturbed me. I thought it well done, but now that I see some of your points I understand it not to be as good as I thought. The way that Kevin just tortured his sister, defied his mother just for the joy of it (shouldn’t have experienced that, I understand) and all the killing, without emotion, especially that of his family, was disturbing. I have learned that psychopaths, although not like NT’s, DO have blunted emotions, so that seemed wrong, too. Correct me if I have misrepresented the psychopath (knowing that everyone, NT, psychopathic or otherwise are each their own person and generalizations are a slippery slope).

Sweet when asleep - all parents think that! :)
