This can also be stated in simpler terms as a child who is not doi
23、ng what adults want him to do at a particular time. Children with this disorder often seem to be behaving in different and socially unacceptable ways.Like learning disabilities, behavior disorders are hard to diagnose. There are no physical symptoms in the body that are observable or measurable. Beh
24、avior disorders are therefore identified by observing behavior patterns in the child over a period of time. If a child displays some of the following 6behaviors, he may be labeled with a behavior disorder:Aggression and cruelty to people and animals.Destruction of propertydefacing or damaging things
25、.Little sympathy and concern for others.Takes no responsibility for behavior. Also lies, cheats and steals easily.Disregards rules and regulations.In addition to these general symptoms of a behavior disorder, there are other symptoms characteristic of more specific behavior disorders such as ADHDthi
26、s is the inattentive, cantsitstill behavior. The attention cant last long and the behavior is impulsive at times. The child also seems quite distracted and forgetful.Behavior disorders come from brain injury, child abuse, and shock, etc. There have also been indications that it could be a genetic di
27、sorder. The behavior therefore is an involuntary response to these experiences and the child should not be blamed for his behavior.

But, as with learning disabilities, accurate diagnosis
29、 is important and this must be over a length of time. It is also important in trying to modify the behavior to be clear about what is the behavior you are expecting. Make sure it is a rational expectation. For example, expecting a threeyearold to sit quietly through a long church service may not be
30、reasonable, or demanding that a sixyearold does extra home work after a long day of school and extra curricular activities may be stretching the childs concentration and attention too far. Since some behavior disorders result from shocking and upsetting life experiences or brain injury, treatments s
31、hould include helping the child to resolve and heal emotionally from the experience. The behavior could be corrected through emotional healing. In other words, when a human being is emotionally healthy, that is, can be aware of his intelligence and enthusiasm for life and his loving connectedness to
