Child behaviour training
Parents of children with conduct disorders are to be trained on how to manage anti-social behaviour under guidance published today by health officials.
What is a conduct disorder?
Training is to be offered to parents of children with conduct disorders.
According to NICE, such a disorder can be identified by persistent and severe anti-social behaviour across different contexts, including:
- Home
- School
- Social settings
Conduct disorders develop in children as they get older, affecting seven per cent of boys and three per cent of girls aged five to ten years old.
