The MacDonald Triad is a theory that if a child exhibits three specific behaviors that they are more likely to be diagnosed with sociopathy as an adult. The three behaviors are bedwetting, firestarting, and animal abuse.

Sociopaths do not experience remorse for wrongdoing. Some sociopaths are sadistic; they derive pleasure from causing pain to others. Many engage in thrill-seeking behavior. Some sociopaths torture and kill animals for amusement or for the thrill of it, some "graduate" to crimes against people.
