Re: Could Some Forms Of Punitive Parenting Lead To Creating A Sociopath?
I think that kind of parenting can exacerbate many types of dormant mental illness and personality disorders. (I don't think it causes them, though.) I would also tend tend to label the dishonest salesman/manipulative lover type behavior as a personality disorder other than sociopathology. Narcissism, egomaniacism, etc. are particularly likely to be triggered by Ezzo-type parenting.
