Raising a child with psychopathy is to wonder if ever siren you hear is because of, or for, your kid. Parenting children with psychopathy changes you and the way you perceive and navigate the world. It forces you to find coping skills that most people never need; but it's the only way to survive. So, if you are one of these families, please know that you are not alone.
In Episode 3 of this series, we discuss the mistaken belief that psychopathy is caused by trauma. Naturally, trauma doesn't help anyone, but it doesn't cause the neurodevelopmental disorder.

Third & final installment of Joell's story, parenting a violent child. Unfortunately, there is a glaring lack of resources to provide treatment for these kids and support to their families.
Part 2 of Joell's story, parenting a violent child. Unfortunately, there is a glaring lack of resources to provide treatment for these kids and suppor to their families.
Listener, Joell, saw Summer's videos about her experience parenting a child with psychopathy, and contacted us to tell her story, as well discuss the appalling lack of resources for these kids & their families.
As mentioned on our TikTok account, Summer recently received a letter from her daughter, who had to be removed from the home for the safety of the family, earlier this year. She chooses to be vulnerable and discuss this and welcomes perspectives from those with similar experiences.
Age, trauma, mental illness, neurological profile, etc. do not exempt us from accountability when we cause harm. Additionally, we deserve to heal and putting in the work to heal our own trauma history is so worth it.
We Missed Y'all! Sorry that we missed our last upload date, but we're back with a vulnerable look at the struggles that caused us to take a momentary step back & what we are doing for self care.
Leo Glazé speaks with us about the legacy of the Black Panther Party and the current state of affairs in this country.
