Bobby Jones Case 15.1

Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) is when a child develops a pattern of disobedient, hostile, and defiant behavior toward authority figures. All children are oppositional from time to time (particularly when tired, hungry, stressed or upset) and they will argue, talk back, disobey, and defy parents, teachers, and other adults. These behaviors are a normal part of development for very young children, but parents generally notice symptoms of ODD by age 8 when the behaviors have not improved. By about age 8, the openly uncooperative and hostile behavior may be ODD when it is so frequent and extreme when compared with other children of the same age and when it affects the child's social, family, and school life. The causes of ODD are unknown,

John is unique because of his four different character traits. First, John demonstrates the personality trait of being a troublemaker. John gets in trouble because of his silly pranks. John describes “They called me that because I used to set off bombs in the bathroom”(1). In other words this shows that John is a troublemaker by setting

Personality traits: He is considerate, in a sense that he didn’t want his 9 year old daughter to know about the fact that he killed someone with a grenade while in battle.

Byron is a mean boy who makes fun of younger boys. He is uncaring and doesn’t care about anyone except himself. He takes pleasure in hurting and making fun of boys. “ The only reason Byron and Buphead want to play is to do something rude”(9). He plays a blizzard game with Kenny in which he torments Kenny and gives him a grade. He purposely gives bad grades for doing one part of the game wrong. But Byron also has a good side in which he cares about his family and doesn't want them

He is naïve, loyal, and simple minded. His wife, Catherine, is a sweet women, with a very soft heart, and she is very adaptable to her surroundings. They have two children, Ruby-Sue, who is curious, out-spoken, and observant. Her younger brother, Rocky, is quiet, impressionable, and shy.

Here some examples that prove he was just a normal young boy. He thought that life was not fair. “George is the favorite” he said (27). He also said he “was the only one to get spanked” (27). he could be a bit of a troublemaker. he says on page (25). ”I got spanked a lot,” but he only did that because he wanted attention and affection. Not because he a bad boy, or has a mental illness.

Often has difficulty organizing task and activities. (Joey is often described as “off task” and having difficulty returning to school prepared with his materials, and turning his work in the right places.)

Dave is the least favorite of the teachers. He is the student all the teachers talk about together after school, and all the teachers wish they could just pass to send him along to the next grade. He does not take any notes at all because he is too lazy. Dave does not even listen to the teacher because he does not care what the teacher has to say about the lessons. He is the student who tries to distract Ally and Harry and gets everybody off topic. He goofs around constantly with other students from bell to bell and occasionally falls asleep during class sometimes. Dave is the student who has to be moved to different seats all throughout the semester because he cannot stop talking to the other students in the room and distracting them. He does not study at all because he never pays attention in class long enough to write down any notes. Dave’s tendency to not care about studying or making good grades which results in him making mostly C’s, D’s, and F’s. Dave is not the type to bring home grades to his parents because he knows they will most likely not put the grades up on the refrigerator door for everyone to

My first observation of Jaelee, she had a hard time sitting still during story time. She was running around and screaming, while her teacher Ms. Reta tried to read a story. I was told by Jaelee’s mother that she is diagnosed with ODD, which stands for Oppositional defiant disorder. Oppositional defiant disorder is a pattern of angry/irritable mood, argumentative/ defiant behavior or vindictiveness towards authority figures. I felt that the behavior I had overserved was because Jaelee has ODD. I was expecting to see Jaelee misbehave after my first observation, but I was surprised that I had not seen that type of behavior from her again.

He is a typical student that will always be seen at school, an A, B+ student and a streaky shooter with decent range. He can be judgmental too, once he saw a quiet kid wearing nothing but dark clothing and he presumes he was Goth. Scotty

Two weeks ago; an assistant teacher shared a video of her model teacher’s (Charlotte Dial) with NY Times, which recorded in 2014. In this video C.D first took a first grade enthusiastic little girl’s paper and ripped it in half and then she ordered her to go to the “calm-down chair and sit” with

Number Nine: He's A Bit of a TV Nerd. Okay, so this doesn't speak to his work ethic. But he does love the shows Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones.

The book for the class will become a starting point for talking about Oppositional Defiant Disorder, or ODD. Whitbourne and Halgin define that ODD describes children and adolescents who display angry or irritable moods, possess argumentative or defiant behavior and has vindictiveness that results in significant family or school problems (p. 249). Individuals who suffer from ODD can also be seen having these traits: they can easily and repeatedly lose their tempers, refuse orders and requests from others, and they will be deliberately trying to annoy other people around them. On key factor that individuals with ODD hold, is that they will try to blame others for their own behaviors and want other people to see them as a victim rather than the perpetrator.
