Description
Children sometimes argue, are aggressive, or act angry or defiant around adults. A behavior disorder may be diagnosed when these disruptive behaviors are uncommon for the child's age at the time, persist over time, or are severe. Learn more about behavior disorders such as Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder in this article from the Division of Human Development and Disabilities at the CDC.
