Funny, we were reviewing Antisocial Personality Disorder, which the media calls people with this psychopaths, in class yesterday. Sadly, it's a PERSONALITY disorder, which means it's in your personality and there's not a whole lot that can be done. Though with a kid this young he'd probably be diagnosed with Conduct Disorder and then eventually APD as he got older.

But it's still terribly sad when you see instances of it in the news!

Edited to add: Since this is probably the beginning of what may be a personality disorder you can't place too much blame on the parents. People with personality disorders are extremely difficult to live with and deal with. While his parents should know where their 7 year old is, he is an exceptional 7 year old....
