How might academic underachievement perpetuate conduct problems?
What will be an ideal response?
Academic underachievement, seen in 25% of children with conduct problems, and even more likely in those with comorbid ADHD, often leads to negative attitudes about schools and teachers. These youths often put little value in schoolwork and show reduced confidence in their academic prowess. This is cutting them off from a valuable source of resilience. Further, leaving school uneducated makes it more difficult for them to be able to go on to have many career paths that require such an education, making deviance after high school more likely.
