I feel sorry for the world that will never know what contributions Caylee could have made to it.![]()
Beautifully said!!!!!!!!!!!:blowkiss:

I'm confused. . . the very first lines of your referenced "read" state: People who cannot contain their urges to harm (or kill) people repeatedly for no apparent reason are assumed to suffer from some mental illness. However, they may be more cruel than crazy, they may be choosing not to control their urges, they know right from wrong, they know exactly what they're doing, and they are definitely NOT insane. So why do you still consider her mental? See bold/underlined by me.

I think it is very hard for normal people to understand how little sociopaths feel for anyone outside of themselves.
IMO
I shouldn't have said that I felt sorry for Casey.:bang:
My response to the part I bolded...
The years you invested shows just how good and manipulative people with this kind of problem can be.
Unless you have been involved with someone with the problem I think it is very hard for normal people to understand how little sociopaths feel for anyone outside of themselves.

I think you feel sorry for Casey's lost potential.
I have a nephew diagnosed as suffering from antisocial personity disorder.
He is charming, intelligent, handsome, funny, witty and loved by his entire family. Although he has robbed everyone he has come in contact with and he blogs on his myspace about ways to do us all in, the family MISSES him and grieves.
My nephew is 20 years old, living with his pregnant 16 year old girlfriend and her family (who, he also occasionally blogs about wanting to kill) and despite being born into a life many would envy, the future looks bleak. My nephew has been in therapy for one thing or another most of his life. His last diagnosis was by a specialist our family doctor said was the best available.
Our family has been told my nephew will most likely end up in the same place Casey is headed. The prognosis for antisocial personality disorder is grim.
I DO understand sorrow over a young person who COULD contribute so much throwing away his life or worse. It IS heartbreaking and sad. But, what is more scary is that there is about to be a baby born into the situation.
You can call me a cruel SOB, but looking at that family, do you really think Caylee was going to break the mold and become Mother Theresa?
We look at her as the adorable angel she was, when in reality, she probably never had a chance to be a productive citizen. She was being raised by a Sociopath, and the family who helped enable her behavior.
Poor Caylee never stood a chance.
Please forgive me if I've broken any rule, or if there's already a thread like this, but do you want Casey to receive counseling in jail and if she gets sent to prison?
Unlike many people, I don't believe she's absolutely heartless. I don't like to make "absolute" judgments about people, despite her family's usage of that word. :crazy: I do think that at some point she loved Caylee, and may still love her in some way. I think something happened in her life, or a combination of things happened, to make her the way she is.
I'd like to see her receive counseling so that 1) she may someday reveal the truth of what really happened, 2) she can seek forgiveness, and 3) something can be learned from this to maybe keep it from happening to someone else in the future.
