"They view it through their perverse world view, not seeing it as others would, which is a characteristic of antisocials." Though the two boys expressed remorse for the hurt they were about to cause their parents, their ability to shut off such pangs of guilt is also characteristic of ASP.

I have learned as a researcher and an expert witness in youth homicide cases that the answer is usually...

In the wake of his shooting rampage, Kip Kinkel reported that he had been hearing voices but didn't tell anyone. Klebold successfully hid his inner turmoil from his loving parents. Anyway, how many parents are capable of thinking the worst of their son--for example, that he harbors murderous fantasies, or that he could go so far as acting them out? Even if parents know their child as an individual, they...
