A young child with no sense of right or wrong will still do a selfish act, and take something that is not his.

Herein lies the challenge, creating a society for the greater collective selfishness. If we agree as a society it's acceptable to put the child murderer to death, no doubt the condemed child murderer might not find that acceptable - but the community as a collective might find this act of violence acceptable, and possibly even "good." |
