"It's hard to label, because we don't know all the facts, but we know that when a young child acts out, those behaviors are usually a product of their environment and a warning sign that there's more to the story," says Bryan Pacheco, a spokesperson for the domestic abuse hotline and shelter, Safe Horizon . "What has she seen in her life that's encouraging her to act like that?" The Dr. Phil video would suggest she's seen quite a bit, and Pacheco points out that her mom's antagonizing language is concerning and could have egged her on — she calls her a bitch, a lot.
