Hi everyone,

Tonight I was watching the movie Ender Games. Has anyone seen it and seen the depiction of how it must be for a pwBPD to think. The kid in the movie is torn between his aggressive angry side and the loving compassionate side.  The training program tries to keeps him from attaching to people.  because he is pulled by both side he thinks outside the box per say. He finds his opponents weakness and uses it to his advantage. The scene where he is playing the dream game and sees both his sister and bother hinting at which side will he chose. You have instructors monitoring his mind priming events for him trying to shape his interpretation of events. Just a Little weird as to see as I'm starting to learn more about BPD.

Just wondering if any one was seeing this also? My son said the book was more telling also.

I just read the Wiki article on the book and movie.  Sounds interesting.

The fact that you and your son had this discussion says something good about you as a father.
