children with disruptive behavior disorders

Children with disruptive behavior disorders exhibit persistent patterns of conduct that are challenging, such as defiance, aggression, or difficulty controlling impulses. These behaviors often disrupt their relationships at home, school, and in social settings. Common disorders include Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and Conduct Disorder (CD). Factors contributing to these behaviors can include genetic predisposition, environmental influences, and family dynamics. Early intervention, therapy, and consistent discipline strategies are essential in helping these children develop healthier behavior patterns and improve their social skills. Addressing these challenges is crucial for their overall development and well-being.
