    What are the signs of a sociopath?
    My husband and I have guardianship of this 15 year old. He has shown signs of being a sociopath already. From being antisocial to wanting everything to be about him. He has a bad love for guns and gets a thrill out of killing. He watches movies about war and gets a rush from the killing and blood. He also has 3 distinct different personalities. He talks and fights with himself. So much more to say but can't. Is this kid a sociopath?

    Please take him to a psychologist or psychiatrist who will talk with him and test him. It does sound like there is something terribly wrong.

    You sound as though it's as difficult for you to be loving to him as it is for him to love anyone. Forgive me for pouncing a bit on the expression 'this 15 year old,' because I think I understand how hard it must be, but when you don't say how he is connected to you, it sounds far away emotionally. Yes, get him help (but I wouldn't assume the extreme of sociopath just yet). If Social Services was involved at any time, give them a call in the morning.
