Seven Year Old Sociopath

This is disturbing to say the least. It took place in a reptile zoo in Australia.

A seven year old boy scaled a fence in a reptile zoo in Australia. Obviously fearless. He then proceeded to feed both living and dead animals to a croc. From what I understand he was bashing some of the animals heads with rocks. Now I have several problems with this story.

First off, where were the parents?

Secondly, why would a seven yr old be so bold and unafraid?

This act had to take some time, again where were the parent/guardians?

And lastly, his older brother was part of a gang that attacked the very same crocodile that he fed.

Now, it's obvious that there is something wrong with the family. I am an advocate for animal rights and the prevention of cruelty to animals. But to label this seven yr old boy a sociopath is sad. His life is ruined. This family should have been monitored after the first incident involving his brother.

Sad, very, very sad.

i agree, the boy is but a mere child. i was always taught that every action a child makes is based on what the child is allowed to get away with by the parents. its sad do see such a lack of valued parenting skills now a days
