Can a person with grand mal seizures give birth to a socialpath?

Any woman can give birth to a sociopath. Epilepsy is not a mental illness, which seems to be the basis for your question. Epilepsy is a physical illness. As any woman can give birth to a sociopath then so could a woman with epilepsy. However there would be no connection with the fact that the woman has epilepsy as to what way her child would be.

How is epilepsy spread in human beings?

Epilepsy is not "spread". It is not contagious, it is not infectious. You cannot catch it from another person. It is a physical condition. So like you cannot catch a broken arm from someone, you cannot catch epilepsy from someone. There are many causes and forms of epilepsy. It is not a single condition, but a catch-all term for anyone that has recurring seizures. There are various reasons people have seizures. About the only way a person can get it from someone else is if a condition that causes seizures is passed on genetically. So people in the same family can sometimes get seizures, but as most cases of epilepsy are not genetic, then usually one person a family having seizures will not mean that others will too.


Can there be personality changes before a person has their first seizure?

Epilepsy is a physical illness, not a psychological or psychiatric one. So in general the answer is no. One reason for Epilepsy can be a head injury. A head injury in itself could cause problems for a person which might change their behaviour, but it would be nothing to do with the Epilepsy. A change in behaviour would be another side-effect of the head injury like the Epilepsy itself would be, but they have no connection to each other. Those would be rare, so as I said, the answer to your question would be no in the vast majority of cases.
