Psychos in our mist :: psychopathic behavior

For most of us the in placeection of a psychopath conjures up images from movies manage "Silence of The Lambs" and characters with names like "Hannibal Lector." Fortunately characters like Hannibal dont really exist. Serial killers and mass involved in ritual torture are rare, but psychopathological behavior is more common than you might think.I have cognize several psychopaths in my life. The clearest case involved an older teen who had no spirit of guilt. He could learn the rules, but he had no sense of conscience. The only thing that saved him was a mother who loved him, took him to charge for years and spent a great deal of time patiently teaching him right from wrong. I remember a conversation where he told me, "People know when something is wrong because it smellings wrong. I have to remember or be reminded that stealing from someone is wrong. I dont feel corky if I take something."Meeting this young boy changed my whimsy of a psychopathic pers onality. Why? Because children with this condition are "emotionally blind." And mend I do not excuse cruelty or deplorable behavior, I have sympathy and appreciate how hard it is for some throng to learn how to act responsibly. Without help, potentially psychopathic children will become adults who neer remain attached to anyone or anything for long. They may end up life a "predatory" lifestyle, feeling footling or no regret, and having little or no remorse - except when they are caught or almost to be locked up. A psychopath is not necessarily a bad person. entirely they are habituated to have problems with society, rules, expectations and relationships.A psychopath will use mountain for excitement, entertainment, to build their self-esteem and they invariably value people in terms of their material value (e.g. money, property, comfort, etc..). They can involve and dispirit other people into trouble quickly and they seem to have no regret for their actions . To date there is no checklist of behavior and symptoms that will tell you with certainty whether or not a person is a psychopath. But there are warning signs. The following warning signs are found on my experience but primarily research conducted by Robert Hare, Ph.D - the direct expert on the Psychopathic Personality.Characteristics of a Psychopathsuperficial grab self-centered & self-important need for stimulation & prone to boredom deceptive behavior & lying conning & manipulative little remorse or guilt
