Problem:
Parents often go to mental health professionals for help and would then at times self-diagnose their children as having Oppositional Defiance disorder (ODD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). According to Cleveland Clinic (2022), oppositional defiant disorder affects 2% to 11% of children. This range is so wide because some children may be misdiagnosed, and teenagers, as a population, are often underdiagnosed.
