Sadly, not all psychopaths/sociopaths/antisocial malignant narcissists were abused in the past and/or experienced extreme trauma -- only an arguable percentage of them. Frankly, research has failed to reveal, with certainty, why people become such monsters -- overt and/or covert. However, the signs, among even toddlers (some well loved and treated as such), can be seen in, again, a percentage of future sociopathic/psychopathic/antisocial malignant narcissists.

It is sad though that they destroy so many lives. One thing I noticed as a child was the complete lack of empathy and remorse.

Sometimes the only explanation is demonic possession.

Only someone with that kind of faith in God can march into Hell and come out the other side. It is hard to read about that 'woman's inhumanity to children' but nothing like what you have suffered. In raising Peter to be a compassionate, caring, selfless soul - as you have - you have given the world a gift the very opposite of that which that woman inflicted upon the world.

Isaiah 65:17

For look! I am creating new heavens and a new earth;

And the former things will not be called to mind,

Nor will they come up into the heart.

What you learn at home depends, though, on how well you employ those “giving” qualities​—love, joy, peace, long-suffering, and self-control. Dr. E. James Anthony found that resilient children of even psychotic parents could create an oasis of normalcy in a disrupted household. “They can make something out of very little,” he says. “They’re the type who could find a flower in the desert.”​—Parents, November 1983.

This is why it's so important to vet everyone running for office with a polygraph machine. Questions such as: "What is your primary reason for running for this office?" "Do you have any undisclosed hidden agendas that you hope to carry out through the office for which you're running?" "Do you have any intentions of using your office to reduce the freedom/liberty of law biding citizens?" "Do you have any intentions of bypassing the Constitution in any way in order to carry out an agenda that is unconstitutional?" "Have you had or attempted to have any sexual activity with a child?" (Feel free to add additional questions). As everyone on this thread probably knows, with very few exceptions, America and the world has been controlled by psychopaths (and not merely by people greedy for financial gain). If this was not so, common sense begs the question of why America would still be a member of the United Nations, still be in the Paris Climate Agreement ("climate change") instead of and exposing it for the fraud that it is, still allow the Fed Reserve to operate, still have open borders and not educate people as to the true (hidden) goals of UN Agenda 2030 and its Pact for the Future and why our economy was allowed to be destroyed by the fake pandemic. If the world (historically) had not been run by psychopaths/sociopaths, todays (ongoing and unchanged) major world problems would have been solved long ago.

When the income of members of government is paid by the taxation of the people, it will draw with very few exceptions, the most parasitic, immoral and unethical elements of a society. The power to tax is the power to enslave (another indication of psychopathic control).

Hopefully, DJT and his cabinet will be successful in righting our sinking ship. I know we all hope so, even though many of us think that Trump is just another globalist plant. My intuition tells me he isn't. (Recommend watching podcast of NewsTreason.com when Mike King is their guest every Wednesday.)

Politics of any sort is a perfect home for the psychopath & sociopath.

Until we find a totally different way of managing human affairs we are stuck with them.

That is powerful. Unfortunately, the world is full of broken people. I guess that the best rise above their brokeness, even they remain in some way broken. Praise God.

The line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either -- but right through every human heart -- and through all human hearts. This line shifts. Inside us, it oscillates with the years. And even within hearts overwhelmed by evil, one small bridgehead of good is retained

You know, for me, when I understood why my dad was the way he was and what he’d been through, there was nothing to forgive. I could let go of what happened to me as a child. It didn’t make it right or fair but it was also done.

People are the way they are because of what has happened to them in the past. They then pass on their trauma to others. Unless of course they develop the awareness of how they are being and affecting others. Unless they begin their own healing journey.

I can imagine people thinking, it's not possible, but it is. My child's father said he "would tear her apart" as a reprisal for my moving ten miles away with her after our divorce. That's only one of a thousand blows.
