The Effect of Childhood

[heslopian]

I don't really see it as being as simple as that. If you're a schizophrenic for instance you might believe that getting help is a secret ploy by the anti-Christ and that it is right to kill the pregnant woman next door so she and her baby can be together in heaven. Some mental disturbances take away the choice to be your own person. But then in that situation someone else should have gotten them help like you said. Though sometimes I think it's hard to spot if somebody's that mentally unwell.

being skitzo is an actual defined mental disorder and not necessarily a product of child abuse. in which case the child abuse would be a secondary problem.

Yes but you raised the issue of mental disturbances which is why I answered it.
