YouTube Description
as posted by the channelEverything You Need to Know about Narcissists, Psychopaths, and Abuse click on this link
The profoundly disturbing film "We Need to Talk about Kevin" is told from the mother's point of view. Kevin is a maladjusted kid with a conduct disorder who blooms into a full-fledged blood-curdling psychopath in his teens. His mother is one of his victims. Kevin ends up killing his entire family (his mother ends up being the sole survivor and witness to the massacre) as well as numerous schoolmates before he is apprehended.
The film ends with his mother, now reduced to a dysfunctional shell and shadow of her former self, visiting him in prison on a regular basis and hugging him for good measure.
Some victims never learn.
