  • In this talk, Dr. Luna Centifanti discusses psychopathic traits among children, and their relationship to child problem behaviours. She also describes how actions of parents can contribute greatly to behavioural problems among their children. Luna suggests parents should pay special attention to their children's emotions, talking to them about their thoughts and feeling from an early age.
    Dr. Luna Centifanti is a Senior Lecturer in psychology at Durham University. She is a recognized expert on child psychopathic traits, where her work on the effects of callous-unemotional traits on behaviour during development earned her the Neville Butler Memorial Prize for longitudinal research. Dr. Centifanti has contributed to multiple books and academic journals on child psychopathology and mental health, and she is currently editing a handbook on the subject of developmental psychopathology.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    Minute 9: good to have evidence for the “drive me crazy” part! Family Courts tend to see both parents as problematic. Even when one is psychopathic, they tend to label the other as weak/crazy

    Well, the bad news is that i'm still messed up. The good news? I'm finally completely satisfied that i'm not a sociopath/psycopath. Yay me! I feel real empathy for those that are. And i am scared of the ones that have managed to get by with theirs for most of their lives without anyone to guide them, per se.

      Exactly. And btw, there is no pill any psychiatrist can give to instill empathy in a child who has none. As an empath myself, my heart is beyond grieved that this is happening to my child. I think it has a definite genetic component because my child is exactly like their other parent and they haven't even been together in over a decade because of separation.

    I've reached out for help a thousand times or more. Literally. If these social workers, doctors, nurses, mental health professionals didn't think themselves as demigods and "mandated reporters" and listened these children's lies and manipulation garnered to get their way and to gain attention, but instead actually HELPED us deal with the budding narcissism beneath it all, DCFS/CPS would NOT be getting involved and effectively shutting these parents down. Because when push comes to shove, who wants to keep asking for help when you're being called a perpetrator every time and accused of crimes you did not commit? At some point, you just have to pick your battles. This ideology really upsets me because I want NOTHING but the best outcome for my children, but if the only option becomes that when I seek help I'm punished, and my child is in danger of greater attachment problems and greater conduct disorders because they will be removed from the home, then how does that positively affect my child's future? The real perpetrators of this madness need to be stopped. They are a law unto themselves and are destroying families and children's lives forever.

      scary, isn't it, those supposedly in the know having popwers to act and cause harm on their limited understanding. I love that this woman is teaching the occasional child has a poor impact on parents instead of the other way around. Also concerns me still claiming that parents are the cause of bad behaviour, as that's a blaming pattern. Over all though, a brilliant pattern of research and thought, and in spite of the worst audio I have ever heard anywhere, a great and important speech. I would love a transcript to over come the audio.
      I dealt with kids with shocking behaviours. The worst turned out to be caused by a low thyroid hormone problem, and completely fixable. It has given me such insight into what parents can deal with, that I have endless empathy. The teen years have been so exciting, that our educations have been stopped, but at least the children live and have hope for the future. I empathise with you.

    The speaker and much of her ilk are way behind the times in their theories of 'cause and effect.' Did she ever consider genetic factors? And physiology: diet/food sensitivities; infections [Candida, parasites, Lyme, mycotoxins/mold; viruses]; heavy-metal poisoning; hormone issues [thyroid; reproductive, etc.]. Examining the gut-brain connection re behavior and mental illness is as (or more) useful than psychiatry ever has been or ever will be.

However, this recording should be taken as it has been intended and then it is up to us to do our due diligence respectively.

    • @LunaCMunoz
      @LunaCMunoz 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Thanks for the question! It is a combination of being born with certain behaviors as well as things one experiences while growing up. So, being born with particular ways of behaving might make it more likely that your parents, peers -- just the social environment around you -- will treat you differently which then might make you more callous, unemotional, psychopathic, etc.

    • @LunaCMunoz
      @LunaCMunoz 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yes. That's true of much of our behavior, if one thinks about it. So, to see things with our eyes, we need to open them and experience a lot of visual stimulation. Same with psychopathy. A person might be born with temperament traits that become triggered to full-blown psychopathy by a certain environment around the person. (I appreciate the discussion - thanks)

    • @blackwater4707
      @blackwater4707 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It is neurological like autism. People are born that way and always stay that way. However, people that have been badly hurt can behave in ways that mimic a psychopath and their ability to make emotional bonds and feel empathy will be affected because our mind protects itself as well as it can. Researchers looking for cures are wasting resources. There is no cure. The only motivating factor is self-interest and Robert Hare (the father of psychopathy research) has started a prison program that treats psychopaths separately based on self-interest. He found that including psychopaths in the programs for normal people simply made them more dangerous as they learned more skills on 'how to pass', show false remorse and so on.
