"Please!" retorted the doctor, "your proposal is monstrous, Ms. Jones, because that is precisely what it would create within this child – a monster. He's already dangerous. We believe further isolation will only enhance his narcissism and promote his anti-social tendencies. Instead, we recommend that he be immediately re-socialized in a carefully controlled, yet public, context."

Ms. Jones rolled her eyes, and jotted hurried notes into her case file. "For grins and giggles, let's say that you were, hypothetically, capable of discharging the boy this way. What would you recommend?"

Doctor Garcia shuffled up another report from his desk, this one a single page. "First, we believe he may thrive in a small social group, which means he should be placed in a rural setting, a small country town, perhaps."

Ms. Jones raised her pen to interrupt. "Do you have a list there? Can you support your recommendations with specific logic? Thank you."

"We feel that the rural setting is best for two reasons: first, the boundaries of shame and sanction tend to be rather narrow and clearly defined in such closed communities, and, second, we expect the child to act aggressively, at least in the beginning, and a closed setting will more readily expose his future… transgressions."
