Michael de Salazar asked this question about Educated:
Is Shawn a psychopath or did the several massive blows to his head damage his brain so much that he became a very dangerous man? Or is it a congenital mental disorder that he could've received from their father's genes? (Yes, mental illness can sometimes be heritable).
Yvette Shawn was behaving like a psychopath before any of the head trauma/accidents so mental illness.
