Treatment for psychopathy

Dr. Hare has spawned a treatment for violent psychopathic offenders. This treatment was proposed ages ago, but has finally been released.

See: http://www.hare.org/scales/treatment.html

"Rather than attempting to modify personality characteristics, the proposed treatment is a strategy of self-management that helps the participant develop a prosocial lifestyle, reducing the frequency and the extent of violent behavior."

Is it just me, or will this treatment teach failed psychopaths to learn behavioral controls and become successful psychopaths? Keep in mind that "successful" psychopaths does not mean law-abiding; it refers to those psychopaths who commit crimes but do not get caught. Successful psychopaths are thought to be the more dangerous of the two.

As long as we pay our taxes, stay out of the news, and generally not make them look bad, they don't care.

Point taken. I doubt they'll pay their taxes though.

Haha.

I already had this treatment myself. It was self-taught.
