ELI5: What happens to a child if they are found to have psychopathic tendencies?

I remeber my university was running some program at a nearby school looking for young children with psychopathic or sociopathic tendencies. What does socitey do with these children?

Psychopaths can function normally in society and many do. They're characterized as having anti-social behaviors and a lack of empathy, and this doesn't have to be a negative trait - for example, a well balanced and functional psychopath can make those hard decisions that will effect many negatively for the greater good, as in matters of policy in government or in business; not everyone can make the right decision that will cost some people their jobs, for example. They tend to seek positions of power and go into government, law, police, banking, business, and politics. Many political leaders, police officers, lawyers, bankers, and corporate executives are all psychopaths.

Psychopathy != crazy cannibal murderer. Not always, at least.
