When Your Child Is a Psychopath

Psychopath refers to people with personality disorders who lack normal human emotions. Although the behavior is the same as ordinary people, Psychopath's brain can't understand feelings, but they are outstanding at "imitation" emotions and emotions. They are selfish, sympathetic, loyal, and very narcissistic. It is often found that the contradiction of their behavior patterns is different from that of ordinary people. The more violent incidents are, the more calm and calm they are. They are not able to distinguish between smiles and crying faces in photos and are less likely to distinguish between cruel and violent words and words with emotions. However a lot of psychopaths is very likely to be an excellent debater in his or her life, and their way of describing things is prosperous, also their immunity to cruelty is solid. Psychologists believe that 1% of adult males worldwide suffer from this disease. Compared with easily identifiable psychiatric patients, patients with cold blood are more concealed.

You can't even notice how he differs from ordinary people. Some experts believe that genetics plays a certain role; a family that has lacked care for their children is more likely to cause "coldness" than a family full of affection. There are also researchers scanning the brains of patients with psychopath found that the disease is associated with impaired or missing "brain system" in the brain. The most unfortunate thing is that so far the coldness is incurable. Psychologists have nothing to do with it. Because CBT doesn't work for people with cold blood, and it will be dangerous because they have the possibilities to manipulate others thoughts. A psychopath is often unaware of their behavior and can cause social severe adverse effects. They lack the fear of personal injury, lack of fear of immorality and fear of punishment. Therefore, when patients with cold blood are firmly in prison and return to society, they may still be unable to restrain themselves from committing crimes. I have read a book, The Science of Evil, which is about the lack of empathy in people and the causing for psychopaths. It gave a lot of clinical symptoms and behaviors that happened to those people. We do have theories and knowledge about the reason that what cause a person turns in to a psychopath; however, we don’t have sufficient resource to change or converse their mind. It is crucial to acknowledge that your children have the tendency to commit further crime in the future, and it is also essential to understand and give more care and love on them. I believe that there is a trigger that holds onto every human beings’ emotions and that it needs to be held onto people who has the abilities to influence them.
