Bullies may get kick out of seeing others in pain

..stuffed in lockers by guys like you??? These people think they are impressing themselves, and in other cases impressing their cohorts.

They think causing mahem is OK. Why do the right thing? Why be "normal"??Too boring for them to handle so they resort to violence.

Yes, they get a kick out of it,

Why have a study? To get research money, of course.

Um....duh?

That's all I got on this story....duh.....

My locker's nicer than yours!!!

Because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

yeah, I'm actually getting tired of the studies posted by this service.  I got DUH, too.  Like what finally got your brain to work dumb*ss?  God if this is the scientific standard in our world, no WONDER the U.S. is behind. 

WOW!! Your comment is EXACTLY what I was thinking!!

Hmmmmm...well, alienation would be one path....what other option would you suggest?

You are one twisted character.  It's ok to have sex with children because you "asked", and they supposedly have "fully developed genetalia from birth"?  Rape is really just a release of sexual tension and the solution is to have females put out?

Man you are one sick puppy.  

Lerianis

I'm speechless.  I don't know whether to laugh or cry....

Lerianis.....I hope to god you're just trying to rile people up....

But I do have to correct you on one thing: rape is not about sex. Rape is about inflicting pain, and causing terror in the victim. It's not "losers that aren't getting any" who are raping women, it's sociopaths who like to inflict pain, terror, and misery on people...men or women.

As for pedophiles (who are sexual predators, no matter how you try to spin it, children cannot consent to sex).....well, they should all just be executed slowly to rid the world of their type of filth.

I hope to god you're not going around raping little girls or boys, thinking you're not hurting them. If you are, I hope you get what is coming to you: a slow and very painful death, very, very soon.

Lerianis needs to be either physically or chemically castrated and institutionalized for the rest of their life to protect the rest of society.  Very ill creature; I would not go so far as to call Larianis human......

well, in Lerianis defense (in his line of thinking), would you consider someone who sleeps with a 16 year old with the same animosity as someone who sleeps with a 10 year old?  There's obvious sexual consent that can be regarded as the person goes from their mid-teens and up, but sexual activity has been known to fluctuate to younger and younger ages.

So, I guess the question is, where is the line drawn on monsterous, vile pedophilia?

Honestly, I think it has a lot to do with 1: consent and 2: the development of secondary sexual characteristics. It also has to do with the age difference between partners. A 10 year old sleeping with another 10 year old, or even a 12 year old, while disturbing, would not be considered pedophilia, since the neither of the partners have undergone puberty. Pedophilia is a diagnosable psychiatric disorder (not a sexual orientation) in which an adult has either acted on or experienced intense sexual urges towards prepubescent children.

Interestingly enough, some children who have been sexually abused begin to display sexualized behaviour...makes me wonder whether Lerianis was abused as a very young child and this was his way of dealing with it.

And Lerianis -- I was sexually abused as a young child, and I will tell you that I was not asked, did not enjoy it, and it didn't take a shrink for me to know that it was wrong, and damaging. I will never be the same because of that bastard, and he used logic very much like yours when he was at trial: he said that I seduced him. At the time he abused me, I didn't even know what sex was. Now I can't have healthy sex with someone I love, because that bastard's face crosses my mind and I feel sick.

The next taxpayer-funded study will "suggest" that pro wrestling may be fake.  Your tax dollars at work.

Well Said TOM! that's the cure. These friggin little losers need a beat down not meds. CThe P-correct a-holes will differ. ughh...

I got my ass kicked all the way thru Jr High by the ‘bully’ while two of his buddies watched at least twice a month.  The last fight I ever lost was the first I fought back in.  I was an easy target, dork all the way and S/K knew it.  The last time he picked on me was in the middle of a ball field as I cut thru on the way home from school.  A couple of pushes and punches into the incident and I hauled off and hit him square in the face.  His ‘buddies’ proceed to kick the @!$%# out me from that point on and I got at least on shot in on both but they never bothered me again, or did anyone else who witnessed it.  I still have a tooth missing in the back of my mouth from that fight over 30 years ago. 

Point is, you can’t make yourself a target.  You need to teach your kids to defend themselves.  Not because they want to….it’s because they HAVE to.  Teach them how to fight FAIR not get a bunch of his buddies and beat on him.  That is for cowards and no better than the bullies.  My father taught me early on to defend myself.  If I didn’t, he would not come to my defense in a fair fight unless I did.  It is the same thing I have said to my boys...make an attempt to defend yourself or you are on your own.  Defending yourself is the base for your self-esteem.  You cannot be told you have it.  You need to face adversity, not be shield by the politically correct “zero tolerance methods” all thru your childhood.  All this utopian horsesh1t regarding being ‘bullied’ that they feed kids in school don’t work except in fantasy land and frankly makes me sick.  Aggressive conduct disorder….WTF is that?  All they need is a good ass kicking by someone their own size….problem solved. 

Oh and BTW, anyone who thinks that ‘cyber-bulling’ or name calling is just as hurtful has never been kicked repeatedly while lying on the ground.  “Johnny called me douche bag”…”Katy told the whole football team I was fat”…”I wish I was never born”!  Really….that’s it?  Man, I would give anything for that, at least I would still have all my teeth.  That thinking is for pussies, I would know, I used to be one.  Believe me, I have been called plenty, and it isn’t anything compared to a good azz whooping.  If I had to choose….I take the name calling in a second. 

A lot of things in this world are complicated and some are black and white.  This is the later…fight or flight….which will it be?

No, it's not important at all.  It's empty.  This sort of nonsense keeps people like you in business, but it doesn't change human nature.  Look at what a mess you've made of children with all that ADHD crap.  It hasn't improved anything one gnat hair.  Oh, sure, the research sez . . . just about anything you want it to say.

The human condition doesn't change, meat.  Redefine it all you like, and send it to a scholarly journal.  Find some SOMA to prescribe for it.  Where do you think it's all leading?  Talk about Golden Rule!  How'd you like it if some knucklehead determined your behavior pattern was undesirable, and decided to "help" you? 

This is not correct. This study demonstrates that bullies receive a physiological reward from their behavior, not that their genetics are involved--in other words, their behavior causes a response. There is no evidence whatsoever that genes are involved in disordered conduct (which is what a "conduct disorder" is, just as a "personality disorder" means that someone has a mess of a personality).

In other words,  you have things in reverse--the behavior causes the biological response, not the biology causes the behavior. Treating non-chemical problems with chemicals is never appropriate. The correct response is to change the behavior. Whether or not their home lives are bad (I would be interested in seeing the evidence for this assertion, because I've never seen any such data), children and adolescents can learn empathy and self-control. Simply letting them off the hook by saying "It's biology, here are some meds" will never help them learn to live responsibly.

Perhaps you should have read my post a bit closer.  I never once stated that this specific piece of research found a genetic link.  I said that research in general supports this finding.  Try reading before replying.  If you are what you claim to be, then you should happily correct your gross ignorance with the following:

Baker, L.A., Jacobson, K.C., Raine., A., Lozano, D.I., & Bezdjian, S. (2007). Genetic and environmental bases of childhood antisocial behavior: A multi-informant twin study.  Journal of Abnormal Psychology, 116(2), 219-235.

Or, since you are equally clueless about the impact of family life on behaior (and vice versa) I highly recommend:

Burke, J.D., Pardini, D.A, & Loeber, R. (2008). Reciprocal relationships between parenting behavior and disruptive psychopathology from childhood through adolescence.  Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, 36, 679-692.

I have my doubts however, that you are what you say you are.  Either that, or you are lousy at what you do.  You really should keep up on your journals, or admit when you're speaking beyond your expertise.  

Unfortunately, you have obviously partaken of the clinical psychology (my field as well)  Cuckoo Juice that claims chemical and behavioral problems are different.  Some psychiatrists play this game of stupidity as well, from the other side of the ball.  The fact of the matter is, psychological, biological and sociological factors all interact together to create behavior.  Targeting any singular leg of the triad is ignoring the incredible importance of the other two legs.  If you were good at what you do, you would know this.  I had a firm grasp on this before I even went to grad school.  Why don't you?  

Try looking up the biopsychosocial model, then get back to me.  Judging on your already displayed levels of ignorance, it is truly too much to hope that you know anything about it already.  

No - they needed a study to get government funding, without which they'd have to get real jobs.

I agree...I believe in the freedom of the press. But if you stick a mic or camera in my face... that is where freedom of the press has invaded the freedom of my space.

That's also, when it will be time for them to buy a new camera!

"That's also, when it will be time for them to buy a new camera!"

Either that or go to a proctologist to retrieve the old one.

Answer to the microphone in your face: Read it; it'll say CNN, FOX, 880, whatever. Look at the camera and repetivley say, "I won't speak to [CNN, FOX,...]; they continously lie to their audience!"

That would be "Conspiracy Theory."

Or how about a "Clockwork Orange" type of therapy.  Show them photos of Hillary Clinton nude until they change their ways.
