I just stumble upon a video of an abused child who turned violent and started showing psychopathic tendencies. It spends chill down my spine but yet it’s heart wrenching to watch a child speak of killing like it is an everyday thing.
So I did some reading on psychopaths and then found other more interesting things about Psychopaths.
Back in the past whereby justice is… well, very elusive and the rich and powerful can easily get away with crimes, there are much more hideous and vicious crimes committed by psychopaths!
Some of them are really, really atrocious and unthinkable!!

7 out of 9 – really good interesting quiz!
I got 6 out of 9, some people choose that path
Well … I don’t know …
some are born this way while some turned this way because they were not taught to love …
But of course, there will be some who choose to commit crimes!
I thought you were joking about the last question, but my answer choice was wrong.
Hmm… I guess they just work differently from us …
Rewards does better with them to pick up habits and act better.
They usually have a lack of fear so they’re not so worried about punishments, many of them goes in and out of jail. They respond better to rewards.
Now I understand what you mean. Previously I thought they should not be punished but rehabilitated.
My result 5 out of 9
Thanks for taking the quiz 🙂
but I hear they make great presidents
Really?
I’m pretty surprise because i don’t think so …
I was sarcastically suggesting the current US president is a psychopath
Ah… that!
but at times he can be so sentimental and convincing, right?
That is scary, if he is both psychopath and narcissism.
the two go hand in hand. and it is always scary when that happens
but if you’re referring to the current president, his lies aren’t convincing at all. quite the opposite; they’re offensive!
This was very interesting and I got 5 right
Glad you find it interesting 🙂
5 is good
I missed a few but I enjoy reading about this subject. It is so interesting.
Glad its not too disturbing for you 🙂
I got the last one incorrect. I just figured since they lack empathy, that a reward would do no good. Good quiz Alibb!
Hmm… it’s their lack of empathy and fear that makes punishment not work for them. In fact, rewarding good/correct acts/habits seems to work better for them to pick it up.
And some of these psychopaths aren’t born but lack love when young (abused/neglected) that they can’t trust or love anyone. With correct help and loving family/environment, they can be fully functional again.
That is what happen in the video I saw. The little girl was lucky to be in a very good foster family. She was smashing her stepbrother’s head onto the ground and then tried killing them with knives. They have to locked her up in her room at night to prevent anyone from dying. But they didn’t gave up on her but got her through therapy and eventually she was fully functional.
Wow, that is amazing. I had no idea they could even be rehabilitated. Very interesting, that ole human brain!
Some of them could be rehabilitated, especially if they’re not born with it.
Yeah, can’t believe what a mesh of muscles could do,
mine seems underused tho LOL :p
lol, mine too. I do understand!!!
Used the hit and miss method Not something I would want to read again (lol)
Lol, understandable …
if it wasn’t for the stumble on the video …
which kinda shocked me badly, I won’t have even known of this topic
