It seems to me that if one suffers from the disorder and is of above average intelligence then the table is set for a very successful life...a life that relies on dishonesty, manipulation and the destruction of others but still, in the secular societal sense, successful.
That’s sad. I hope you are able to get along with that daughter. I found an interesting article while ‘wondering’ about nature versus nurture.

The silver lining is that we are raising her son (from day one) and that is one of the greatest gifts of my life.
I am happy for you wtc, he’s a lucky boy.
I’ve had a lot of rain, but I’ll make it through to sunshine again.
