Conduct disorder represents a cluster of behaviors characterized by persistent misbehavior, including bullying, fighting, using or threatening weapon use on others, physical cruelty to people and animals, destruction of property, chronic deceitfulness, sexual assaults, and serious violations of rules. ADHD is the leading diagnosis for U.S. children and includes (1) inattention (does not seem to listen, or is easily distracted); (2) impulsivity (acts before thinking, shifts quickly from one activity to another); and (3)
excessive motor activity (cannot sit still, fidgets, runs about, is talkative and noisy). Oppositional defiant disorder represents problems in self-control of emotions and behaviors. Children and adolescents with ODD display a persistent pattern of angry outbursts, arguments, vindictiveness, resentment, and disobedience.
