Having said that, I do know people who have children with severe emotional/behavioral problems who start acting odd. It's challenging to parent a child with serious problems, and odd starts seeming normal.

One thing that puzzles me about them is why they expose their daughter to this kind of attention. I suppose they'd say they were trying to get rid stigma or encourage research or something? I think I'd be inclined to protect my child's privacy.

This video for example:


She doesn't appear to be psychotic to me. Or even seriously intent on self-harm. But more importantly, why the heck is her mom videoing it and posting it on youtube?

I wonder how I'd act if my parents told me from the time I was very small that I had sz?
