Perhaps the article is lazy with elaborating on its normative perspectives onto a mass. The primary danger is when normative behavior is hegemonic and enforced with a uniform acceptance on what a person/child should behave like.

Stories of 'psychopathic' children reminds me of the following, but there are probably many more examples of stories about children being cruel and how people have responded to such cruelty (what are others you have seen?): Cidade de Deus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_God_%282002_film%29) Akira (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akira_%28film%29) Léon: The Professional (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A9on_%28film%29) Monster (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monster_%28manga%29) GTO (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Teacher_Onizuka) Dogtooth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogtooth_%28film%29) Heathers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heathers)
