Behavioral issues refer to patterns of behavior that are disruptive or inappropriate, often affecting an individual's ability to function in social, academic, or work settings. These issues can manifest as aggression, defiance, or withdrawal, and may be observed in children, adolescents, or adults. Common examples include ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder, and anxiety disorders.
Addressing behavioral issues typically involves identifying underlying causes, which may include environmental factors, mental health conditions, or developmental disorders. Interventions can range from therapy and counseling to behavioral modification strategies, aiming to improve coping skills and promote positive behavior in various contexts.
