Focus on Better Behavior

There is a rising number of children who have not even started school yet, who are being given character disorder diagnosis like oppositional defiant disorder. Giving a young child such a label is a detriment to their emotional well-being. Many times better parenting skills can make a huge difference in the behavior of these young children. Learning to effectively deal with misbehavior is the responsibility of the adults and should be the first line of defense in helping a misbehaving child.
