Hi Vera,

     One of the criteria for diagnosis of ASPD is the onset of severe conduct problems before the age of ten. A child whose severe conduct problems begin at a later age has a potentially brighter prognosis.

     I obviously don't know what the future holds for you and your daughter. My own son always had some behavioral issues..ADD type symptoms, lying..it wasn't until he was in his teens that the nightmarish years began - drugs, multiple arrests, stealing, physical violence, etc. I was convinced that he was P.  At 22, the rages have stopped. He still has problems, but in personality , is more like he was as a young boy. I beleive he had adolescent onset conduct disorder.

Some kids get better with time, some get worse.

 You may find the link here  to Dr.Leedoms' site helpful.

   I have no experience with CPS..wish you all the best in getting your son back and in making sense of your daughter's problems.

take care,
