I say it every video and I will again. I loved Scott's book but PLEASE if you've ever thought you could've benefited from this knowledge in the past, kids starting learning this is so important... my son is almost 14 and he read Scott's book a couple months back. He loved it! ❤ if I had this knowledge in my 20s I'd have been saved from a whole lot of heart ache. Thank you so much Scott!🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@@NicolaMaxwell Absolutely! Knowledge is power and well done to you for getting out and staying out!!! The psychological, financial, emotional and health damage these people do is underestimated by doctors, therapists (or was, definitely) and the legal system. Thankfully, high profile cases like Ryan Giggs is changing perceptions. My mother was a Psychopath. Unempathetic, self aggrandising liars who believe their own BS. It has led me through an unhappy life with people who only care about themselves. I'm flying low now and no contact for 8 months, he's still stalking online but won't find me. These 4 lovely gentlemen helped me see what I was dealing with and to be aware enough to finally get out. I'm glad your son will never be prey to these people. Education is a powerful tool. Take care Nicola 💕

[@ScottRouse]

Thank you for that. 🙂

@@luluadapa5222 That's amazing you've learned from these guys. Sorry you had to deal with that growing up and I'm glad to see mental health awareness becoming more accepted. I don't believe in blood thicker than water, I do believe in forgiveness but knowing when to walk away from something or someone that is going to hurt you. Seriously, please stay safe make sure you're looking after your self and you have learned the way I did. Be the change you want to see, I don't know you but I'm proud of you.

I'm enjoying all your content. As a professional dog trainer, I needed to read the body language of the owners, family members when doing the evaluation/sales and during training. I trained the owners and dogs. Many people don't realize how much goes into training people. One little thought by an owner before a walk can change that dog's behavior on the walk. Dogs smell when we feel differently. Owners didn't always tell men during the eval that they had anxiety or fear of thunder or something else. I had to gradually help them open up to me if they didn't up front, so that I could address that their issues were absorbed by their dogs and other pets. There's so much info on this subject. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It's helpful in multiple ways.

[@ScottRouse]

Holy smokes, I didn’t know we smelled different when we change emotions. That’s fascinating. Thanks for telling me that. And thanks for hanging out with us.🙂👍

[@libbybeliveau7506]

I used to use my innate and learned body language reading skills to make money from advantageous sales. I was aware of how the customer felt, I manipulated their emotioms using their body language, and I remained a top seller in my region... But nothing felt right about that sort of communication and I quit the field entierly. I'm in nursing school now, and I find those behavior skills I possesed, and those that I've learned (thanks The Behavior Panel and The Behavioral Arts!) might just be the best thing I have to offer people. I'm excited to learn more, and I can't wait to help peope whith what you've taught me already.

Oh my goodness! I need help with my resting face. Even as a kid, people used to ask me why I'm mad....when I wasn't! It's only gotten worse over the years. I'm 53 and my kid's lovingly call it "resting grandma face." Even my husband of 30 years told me that I look so angry when I sleep. I swear I'm not an angry person at all! When I'm deep in thought, I have the grumpy cat face, though! LOL! Help me! 😂

[@Nannygoat-h8o]

I have been accused of resting bitch face. I get quite resentful over it because i cannot help how my face looks. I could be thinking roses and champagne but they want to think im a bitch. Its a judgemental, almost discriminatory attitude IMO.

[@kinsmade--wherecraftsarefa7830]

Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge! ❤

[@kinsmade--wherecraftsarefa7830]

I worked as a lunchroom monitor in a school K-8. Kids are so obviously sneaking their phones and giving up unsanctioned behaviors by threat checking. I rarely saw them breaking rules. But I caught bad behaviors by noticing body language. But, one 8th grade girl was constantly sneaking glances at me and tracking my movements, but I never caught her or anyone at her table doing anything wrong. I told another teacher to watch her. He wondered at me bwcause she wasn't a trouble-maker. When I explained my suspicions, he suggested their may be an issue at home where a child is always hyper-vigilent. I'd like to learn more about how abusive home life affects behavior. I also would like you to do a tasteful video on behavior and body language and sexual intimacy.

[@sbeddo1]

My husband is a Certified Threat Manager. He recommended "Snakes in Suits" to me years ago. Crickets...haha. Then Scott recommends it and it now is on my nightstand waiting for me to read! 🤣 PS. I loved Without Conscience.

One question: Why do you people keep using the terms "psychopath" and "sociopath"?These terms went obsolete in the late 80s. "Psycopath" would today roughfly translate to a combination of narcissistic personality disorder and anti-social personality disorder according to Chases's Bible... 😄😉

Thanks a lot Mr. Rouse for what you do perfectly. What you said abt Greg Hartley, running the SERE school n came across some experiences of eye movements, I totally agree. I firmly believe nothing can beat experience. I was the top student in my college studying Nutrition, but when I came to visit ppl in my own office, after a certain amount of time I realized, I only use near 30-40% of my learnings in college, more than 60-70% r experiences frm working at hospital n the ones as I progress. As an instance, when I consult a patient n I talk abt food n he/she have a deep swallow, happening exactly at that time, I immediately get what type of a person w/ which problem I'm consulting with, n how I can approach the person. I asked them to correct myself at early stages, n It was truly a relief 4 me, that I was correct in my observations.
