The one I posted....

I'll repeat.

A woman goes with her sister to her Mother's funeral. A terribly sad day, she is grateful for the comfort given her by a strange man. A month later, she murders her sister. Why?

For anyone who's missed the discussion previous to this: it's a Shrink's question, one for which there's no right answer (i.e. it ain't a riddle). the Shrink will take more notice of your first reply than of what you suggest when your logic has kicked in.

My first reaction was that she was blaming her sister, a bad-reaction-to-grief thing. Others I've posed the quezzy to have given a range of answers, none of which I can interpret as I'm no psychiatr/ologist. But the one they're watching for, the one which marks one out as a possible Sociopath is down the page a bit.....

If you answer "She killed her so there'd be another funeral, and the nice man might attend again, and then she could make a move on him", you'd be a possible Sociopath. You'd also have given the same answer as my daughter did, without a second's hesitation.
