Are all child abusers psychopaths?

I'm trying to figure out if my dad is one.

More likely sociopaths. Psychopathy is more what you see in serial killers, people like Charles Manson.

Yeah I guess. My dad exhibits the signs of both of those combined

@TheFlowerThatBloomsInAdversity: Antisocial personality disorder.

Yeah I know but that kinda corresponds with psychopathy and his acts of violence and anger toward his children, for many years, to me, shows it's more than just antisocial disorder
