Causes
The exact cause of ODD is not known, but it is believed that a combination of biological, genetic, and environmental factors may contribute to the condition.
Some studies show that ODD has been linked to abnormal functioning of certain types of brain chemicals, or neurotransmitters that may be malfunctioning.
Many children and teens with ODD have close family members with mental illnesses, including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and personality disorders. This suggests that a vulnerability to develop ODD may be inherited.
Environmental factors such as a dysfunctional family life, a family history of mental illnesses and/or substance abuse, and inconsistent discipline by parents may contribute to the development of behaviour disorders.
Risk factors
Oppositional defiant disorder is a complex problem. Possible risk factors for ODD include the child's temperament, difficulty regulating emotions, getting highly emotionally reactive to situations or having trouble tolerating frustration
Other studies show that children who experiences abuse or neglect, harsh or inconsistent discipline, or a lack of parental supervision may display symptoms of ODD.
Recommendation
If your child is showing signs of ODD, it is very important that you see a qualified mental health professional immediately. Treatment for ODD is determined based on many factors, including the child's age and the severity of symptoms.
The sooner the child is treated the more effective is therapy, Without treatment, a child with ODD has a greater chance of developing a more serious behavioural disorder called conduct disorder.
