Many parents use the term \u2018naughty\u2019 to describe when children misbehave. But what does the word mean? And how does a parent know when they need to seek further help to deal with their child\u2019s behavior?<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a typical scenario describing a \u2018problem child\u2019:<\/p>\n
A single father brings a six-year-old boy to an appointment with a psychologist. The father tells the psychologist that the naughty child is unable to control his behavior, and the psychologist soon sees this in action.<\/em><\/p>\n
The child constantly jumps, touches toys in the office without permission, and slams doors. When he gets bored, he goes to the blinds, pulls on them, and finally breaks them.<\/em><\/p>\n
The father explains that in kindergarten, teachers cannot cope with the child; he ignores them and carries on doing his own thing: running around, breaking toys, and screaming loudly during nap time. The naughty child cannot make friends; children stay away from him, and no one wants to play with him or do any activities together.<\/em><\/p>\n
This scenario provides several examples of how adults describe a naughty child. Such children:<\/p>\n
\n
Do not control their own behavior<\/li>\n
Do not take into account feelings and emotions of themselves and of others<\/li>\n
Do not follow any codes of conduct in preschool and school institutions<\/li>\n
Are unresponsive to parents and teachers<\/li>\n

Do not know how to behave properly in public places<\/li>\n
Have their naughty behavior get on the nerves of adults<\/li>\n
Became outcasts in a group of children<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
