May 8, 2017 at 8:37 comment added Stijn de Witt > this assumes there is no underlying mental disease. Which is perfectly reasonable when you hear about a kid entering puberty starting to exhibit described behavior. The behavior described is much more common than mental diseases are.
May 5, 2017 at 13:05 comment added Steve-O @ThorbjørnRavnAndersen Then we must agree to disagree. I learned this way when I was a child and I routinely act nice to people just because I feel like it. It's like there's a part of my mind that just expects something good will come of it, even if there's no explicit promise of a reward.
May 5, 2017 at 6:24 comment added JDługosz «teaches him that his actions have consequences - good consequences for good behaviour, bad consequences for bad behaviour» that's true for a normal person. But a specific mental problem can affect this. I once knew someone who could not grasp that people reacted in consequence to her behavior, and any such was simply seen as picking on her. … «in time he will learn that» this assumes there is no underlying mental disease or phisiological condition.
May 5, 2017 at 6:01 comment added Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen I disagree that everything should have consequences - good or bad. This leaves no room for demonstrating you can just be nice because you feel like it.
