A Father Who Is A Child Is Normal?

You don't have to be downright retarded or have downsyndrom to have something wrong with you. Your father DOES have something going on and only a professional can diagnose him. I have all kinds of mental health issues on my mom's side of the family, my uncle grew up very violent, later shot himself, and now he has other problems because of the brain damage from the bullet. My great uncle is schyzophrenic, and there's other stuff too in the family but I don't wanna list it all. My point is, your dad needs to see a psychiatrist for diagnosis, and get put on medication to help better balance him out. Medication is not a cure, but it makes a huge difference. My uncle who shot himself is now peaceful and tolerable, but if he skips his meds, he becomes dangerously violent.
