behavioral problems
Trouble with conduct
Behavioral problems are patterns of conduct that disrupt normal functioning or violate social expectations.
The term usually applies to children and adolescents—acting out in school, defiance, aggression, or inability to follow rules: The teacher referred him for behavioral problems.
In adults, the phrase more often appears in clinical contexts, describing symptoms of mental illness or cognitive decline: Dementia patients often develop behavioral problems.
