 * "Sociopath" isn't a formal term, ASPD is. Classical sociopathy's SPD.
 * She cannot be ASPD because of her age - it's CD at that age.
 * It is a case of 1+1=10 to me. I don't sense the evidence.
 * All disorders have a psychological cause. Any evidence that Piper is not just possessive are probably caused by early POV issues and parenting.
 * It's basically like saying that your parents didn't go shopping earlier in the week because the pantry is low on food.
 * If you scroll around my previous points, there actually is not enough reason to back up Piper being a "sociopath" from those who said so.
 * At that point, you realise that people are just appropriating the term for their own needs and want a fancy four-syllable label for Piper.

Piper haters: I agree with you to a certain extent but I also kind of disagree with you at the same time. Piper is obsessive with Jason but she's not as obsessive as some of you say. You make her sound like Jason has consumed her entire soul and being when he actually hasn't. Piper is obsessed with Jason but not as much as you say. Also, Annabeth and Percy aren't obsessed with each other nor vice versa. I kind of agree with the being whiny part. But Piper isn't useless, she actually leads her friends out of trouble and saves them multiple times.

@Vishwauser: Completely agree! I have realised how easy it is to start fights on forums after reading several forums on multiple wikis.

I don't really like Piper a lot but I don't hate her either.
