Is Your Mother a Psychopath Quiz

You’ve probably heard the term psychopath thrown around before. This term may be used loosely to describe someone whose behavior upsets us or refers to someone who has a mental health condition. While these are not accurate examples of a psychopath, this term can be correctly applied to someone who shows signs of Antisocial Personality Disorder. Psychopaths have no concern for others or an understanding of what’s right or wrong.
