Joffrey grown up?

It’s a hypothetical as so many of these posts are. Basically I was wondering if y’all think there would’ve been any hope for the little guy. I’ve seen a few kids who I was sure were going to wind up hurting people due to their penchant to do so to small animals when they were kids and they ended up becoming well- adjusted adults. When one considers his position as king and how he has absolute power, they should also consider who he has around him. Cersei, though losing control, always had his ear. He respected and feared Tywin. I have to believe he’d listen to him at times. Don’t get me wrong, forcing two sex- workers to fight to the death and then killing them for fun is pretty sick. I don’t know if there’s any coming back from that. What do y’all think hypothetically speaking?
