Evaluation Of An Individual 's Unique Style Of A Bad Kids

A disability is a condition of impairment--a physical or mental condition--that limits a person’s activities or functioning. Handicap is used when legally specifying life processes or social activities that adversely affect a person’s functioning. A handicap is much more limiting than a disability.

Disability is when a child or young person has special education needs, which stands for SEN. The children's and families act 2014 states that "If she or he has a learning disability which calls for special educational provision to be made for him or her".

Conduct disorder (CD) represents one of the most disruptive behavior disorders of childhood.(1) CD continuos to be the predominant juvenile disorder seen in mental health and community clinics, and is of great concern because of its high degree of impairment and poor diagnosis. (2) It is characterized by a persistent and repetitive pattern of aggression, non-complaint, intrusive, and poorly self controlled behaviors that violate either rights of others or norms of society. These behaviors have a significant impact on the daily functioning of the child or adolescents and on their parents. (3,4). The prevalence of CD varied widely between as low as 1 % to as high as 16 % among children and adolescents. (5) These disparities are more likely due

According to research antisocial disorder causes violent acts in children of a young age. Review of literature indicates that antisocial personality disorder is a mental condition in which a person has a long-term pattern of manipulating, exploiting, or violating the rights of others. This behavior is often criminal (Berger, 2014). It has been said that people who have experiences a traumatic event in their life many develop antisocial personality disorder, which can also cause them to be very violent (Black, 2013). Researchers say they don’t know for sure what causes this disorder. Many state that how the person interacted in their early years around family and friends can be a major factor to this disorder (Gorhol, 2014). The environment they grew up in such as substance abuse, child abuse, or neglect has been said to be linked with antisocial personality disorder (Black, 2013).

Conduct Disorder is a severe mental health problem for several reasons. First, it involves aggression, criminal behavior, and it is associated with social, emotional, and academic problems. For example, CD often leads a child to be rejected by his or her peers and to be suspended or expelled from school (Frick, 2016). Children and adolescence with CD have problems with mental health, drug and alcohol abuse, health concerns, legal problems, attaining education, and social issues in adolescence and adulthood. Given the seriousness of CD, a significant amount of research has been put forth to shed light on the causes of CD. This research has discovered numerous factors that can place a child at risk for CD. These risk factors include neurochemical and autonomic irregularities, neurocognitive deficits, processing of social information, temperamental and personality predispositions. Additional, risk factors include prenatal exposure to toxins, ineffective discipline, association with deviant peers, and exposure to violence(Justin et al. 2013).

According to the DSM-5 when an infant is exhibiting difficulty in his or her temperament or is difficult to control, this may be an indication that the child is having symptoms of early onset of conduct disorder (p.473). The DSM- 5 also implied that families who shows deviant behaviors in the home where children/adolescence witnesses violence or victims of it are potentially at greater risk of developing a conduct disorder. This is also true for those that lives predominantly high crime neighborhood (p.473). On the other hand, Dr. Cheryl D. Wills (2014) stated that conduct disorder is considered “one of the only” DSM-5 disorders that has no other criteria that are excluded from being “clinically treatable diagnoses”; and as a result, anyone without the proper credential can label an individual with the disorder. For that reason, the DSM-5 conduct disorder diagnosis is questionable. Because how can an infant

Conduct Disorder has been a part of the American Psychological Association’s Diagnostic Statistical Manuel (DSM) since its original release date in 1994. Although, there is new information about the disorder that was previously unknown, Conduct Disorder is distinguished by a “repetitive and persistent pattern of behavior in which the basic rights of others or major age-appropriate norms or rules are violated” (American Psychiatric Association, 1994.) This mild, moderate, or severe antisocial behavior begins to appear either in childhood, categorized as early-onset conduct disorder , or in adolescence after ten years of age, classified as adolescent-onset conduct disorder

The LDA organization offers specific information on a number of disabilities that children are afflicted with, including dyslexia, dyscalculia, central auditory processing disorder, non-verbal learning disorders, language disorders and writing disorders (dysgraphia). The LDA site notes that "learning disabilities" is actually an "umbrella" term alluding to a number of disabilities.

According to WedbMD, in 2016 it was reported that Conduct Disorder (CD) affects 2%-16% of children and adolescents in the United States. Conduct Disorder is defined by the American Psychological Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (also known as the DSM-5) as “a repetitive and persistent pattern of behavior in which the basic rights of others or major age-appropriate societal norms or rules are violated” (DSM-V, 2013, ¶ 3). Conduct Disorder has 3 subtypes depending on the age of onset of the illness. The first is childhood-onset, a type given to those individuals that show symptoms of the disorder prior to the age of 10 or prior to puberty. These individuals display frequent aggressive behavior towards others, usually meet the full

Kress and Paylo (2015) emphasize that the criteria for conduct disorder includes persistent unruly conduct, impetuous of self-control, emotional outburst, and a blatant disregard to, or for others, just to mention a few. These features are seen primarily in Children and adolescents whom have been diagnosed with CD. Also, Empirical research has noted that “Persistent disruptive behavior is a product of multiple interacting elements and includes biological, environmental, and psychological influences”

Well conduct disorder is a complicated group of behavioral and emotional problems in youngsters. Children and adolescents with this disorder have great difficulty following rules and behaving in a socially acceptable way. They are often viewed by other children, adults and social agencies as bad or delinquent, rather than mentally ill.

Children with conduct disorders fail to respect authority. They may show this in their behavior by stealing, lying, bullying or destroying property. These children might tease, frighten others, or become physically harmful to other children and adults. Adolescents may ignore curfews, run away from home or skip school. As these children become older, their problem behaviors may evolve into criminal behaviors.

A child psychiatrist or a qualified mental health professional usually takes the observations of parents and teachers into consideration before making a diagnoses of conduct disorders in children and adolescents. According to Parent—Child Interaction and Conduct Disorder, “ a detailed history of the child's behavior from parents and teachers, observations of the child's behavior, and, sometimes, psychological testing contribute to the diagnosis” (Gardner, 1992). Overall, as with many mental health illnesses, researchers believe that a long, random, sequenced list of experiences occur in the development of conduct disorder. As this paper points out, this sequence may start with academic failure, unsuccessful parenting practices, and poor social

I know that I am a Visual Learner, and everything I learn is through what I see. I learned that I am able to learn through different teaching styles and still learn the necessary information that is being given. Most people can relate to being a visual learner as it helps to see the information and retain it as well. Another type of common learning style is bodily kinesthetic which I feel I also learn well from as well.

Interest in children who have conduct disorders has heightened in recent years because of the significant increase in the prevalence of deviant behaviour among students. Conduct disorder is a repetitive and persistent pattern of behaviour in which the basic rights of others or major age-appropriate societal norms or rules are violated (American Psychological Association, 2000). In Nigeria, students with conduct disorders engage in deviant behaviours such as aggression, peer cruelty, fighting, bullying or threatening others, pilfering, rioting, stealing, truancy, substance abuse, raping, smoking, lateness, falsification of results, violation of rules and regulations, assault of both students and teachers, vandalisation of
