What will be an ideal response?
Those with childhood-onset conduct disorder display at least one symptom of the disorder before age 10, whereas those with adolescent-onset conduct disorder do not. Increasing evidence points to the importance of age at onset in diagnosing and treating children with CD (Odgers et al., 2008). Children diagnosed with childhood-onset CD are more likely to be boys, show more aggressive symptoms, account for a disproportionate amount of illegal activity, and persist in their antisocial behavior over time (Lahey, Goodman, et al., 1999). In contrast, youths diagnosed with adolescent-onset CD are as likely to be girls as boys and do not display the severity or psychopathology that characterizes the childhood onset group. They are also less likely to commit violent offenses or to persist in their antisocial behavior as they get older.
