True. And I feel real bad for that boys mother. If only we knew what caused such things and more importantly, what cured them - permanantly. Now being an aspie myself I don't say that EVERY mentall illness or dysfuntion (or whathave you), but the ones that cause these concflicts, the ones which can end with violence/death.
