Kids who are beat by a parent or both parents, or watch a parent beat the other parent regularly, beat other kids. That's the only way they've learned to deal with stress with other human beings.
There was extreme violence in my house as a kid. I got in a lot of trouble in grade school because I thought when someone made you angry you beat the shit out of them. I highly suspect this this 10 year old girl was the victim of and/or witnessed a lot of physical abuse. You disassociate yourself from the pain of the other that you're hurting.
