0:00.0	When did you realize a child might actually be the devil?
0:05.0	My younger brother is a psychopath. We are 13 years apart. When I was very pregnant with my second
0:10.8	child, he tried to drop kick me in the stomach and said he wanted to get rid of my little one.
0:15.5	He was mad because I wouldn't let him play a video game. Another time when he was around six or seven,
0:20.2	he took a baseball
0:20.9	bat and jumped on the neighbor's car hood and started bashing it on the hood and roof,
0:25.6	making dents. The neighbor came out horrified, and when he yelled at my brother, my mom came out
0:30.1	and threatened to whoop my neighbor's butt. My mom is part of the reason my brother is such a little

0:55.7	but he'd really dig his nails into you, pull your hair, stuff like that. And he'd find it funny.
1:00.4	He was also kind of manipulative and knew that he could get away with anything and seemed to play on
1:04.8	that. He was extremely angelic looking, blonde hair and blue eyes and turubic face. But he was a monster. One winter
1:12.5	evening I picked up the three kids after some school performance and went to the local cafe.
1:16.8	It seemed all of the parents were going there to socialize and we were all being picked up by the
1:20.7	family's mum. So I was chatting at one of the tables with the parents while the kids played
1:25.2	around. There were probably 15 kids of varying ages
