Young children are selfish by nature, it is up to a parent to teach them how to behave. Young children often hit, bite, fight with each other and bully each other. The fact that she destroyed her toy could very well be significant, but children are also destructive. That it was a doll that she destroyed, however, could indicate that she was unable to emotionally connect to others.

But when you find a child who is sadistic at a young age, it is generally a result of severe trauma, emotional trauma and/or neglect. (Think about children in Russian orphanges). Unless one wants to believe that she was born that way, which would mean she really can't help who she is.
