No. It works reasonably well for mentally ill people. Neither misbehavior of children, nor homosexuality are illnesses.
Aggression is a trait, not an illness.

If someone behaves aggressively toward you, the simplest solution is to smash him in the skull eight or nine times with a largish chunk of reinforced concrete.  We MUST put a stop to aggression.  Clearly, swift and blinding violence is the best way to accomplish this.

No. It's a general description of behavior, which very well may be indicative of, or caused by an illness.

RE: In support of the rage of man
I don’t have time to fully jump in now, but I’ll be sharing my thoughts on women furthering the “oppressive male patriarchal structure” and societal effects and solutions.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Having my testicles fondled, rather than stomped, usually ends up to be the best solution for all involved.

How about being gently ground beneath a pair of stilletos?

Is someone behaves aggressively often, then aggression is a trait of that person.

And no, unless you want to say that this society and all the others before it were ill, then male aggression isn't an illness. It's pretty obvious that it's a trait of the males of this species, or at least of the alpha males.

Gently and stilletos rarely appear in the same sentence. I'm suspect.

If someone sh*ts themselves often, then the smell of excrement is a trait of that person. That doesn't mean there's nothing wrong with them...

Or perhaps those you think of as "alpha males" were actually mentally ill people, who happened to find a socially accepted outlet for their disorders. Most psychopaths and narcissists think of themselves as "alphas". Many people with anti-social disorder probably do too.

As I mentioned in my first response to you - aggressive behavior can be explained, or "justified" by circumstances. But most of us don't live in small warring tribes, under constant threat of immediate death. Circumstances that cause a neuro-typical person to become enraged are relatively rare. You can act aggressively because you want to - or because you can't help it.

Also - "rage" and "aggression" are not synonyms. You can be an "aggressive" businessman, or a football player. There's no good use for rage anywhere. It's just a negative emotion, in the same way despair is. And if you saw someone who can't help but feel hopeless under circumstances where most people seem to be coping just fine - you wouldn't just say, that it's just their trait and it's "normal", even though there's an infinity of things one could despair over, and there have been miserable people all throughout the history of humankind.
