Sociopaths

Kids will be kids...or is it Sociopaths?
Sociopath: a person afflicted with a personality disorder characterized by a tendency to commit antisocial and sometimes violent acts and a failure to feel guilt for such acts. Hhhmm, sound familiar? I am at a loss for words when I stare into the gleeful eyes of a child who has committed nothing short of aggravated assault. Surely he knows what is coming to him...surely.

  5. I believe that the diagnosis of "sociopath" cannot be made under a certain age for a reason much like this.

  6. A child and a sociopath are often analogous, but I know they can't help it. Developmentally, they can not yet take on the perspective of another. I couldn't help but draw the parallel though. Tender hearts beware! I am sarcastic.
