[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can parents do anything differently during childhood or are some of these kids wired differently and it's only a matter of time? [/quote] Some people show signs early but the vast majority have zero signs before age 18. You’re not going to parent your child out of bipolar or schizophrenia mental illness. It’s very offensive to families with a mental illness sufferer to suggest that poor parenting or a hidden trauma caused mental illness. [/quote] That may not be true. For example, I recall a study where laypeople were shown childhood videos of those later diagnosed with schizophrenia along with videos of those without mental health issues and they could easily pick out who would develop the diagnosis. It's about interaction of genetics with environment and by environment I mean anything from pollutants and chemicals to home life. Good parents get help to try to figure out how to work with this very challenging situation and it's ongoing. It foesn't mean good parents still don't have violent adults-we know that, but doing nothing or giving up rarely has a positive outcome.[/quote]didn’t work for Nick Reiner. [/quote] True. They tried everything plus lived full lives and kept a close eye on him. Ugh. [/quote]
