3 Behaviour Issues in Children > Are common > Present in a range of ways > Are often complex and can be difficult and time consuming to assess and manage > Children behave the way they do for a reason there is no such thing as a naughty child!
4 General Approach > Is this a simple behaviour problem, or is there something else going on? > Refer children and families who need it: Further assessment diagnosis not clear Definitive diagnosis suspicious of a diagnosis Assistance with management > Manage those who do not require referral: What is the behaviour telling me? Devise management plan Monitor
5 Influences on Child Behaviour > Normal social-emotional development requires a bond with a primary caregiver and adequate social interactions > Home environment / parenting routine/chaos, predictable/variable, emotionally responsive, limit setting > Temperament > Disease / disability > Educational environment > Sleep > Diet
6 Where to Start? > History of the behaviour: What? How long? How often? Where? With whom? When? Why now? Who is worried and to what degree? What are they worried about?
7 Further History > Past medical history from pregnancy onwards > Family tree and family history > Do you or Johnny s father have any medical or mental health issues that impact on the family? > Finances > Current and previous supports and services
8 Further History > Has Johnny ever been exposed to verbal aggression or physical violence within the immediate or extended family, or the neighbourhood? > Sleep > Diet > Attention Span screen entertainment doesn t count > Impulsive? > Easily distracted? More so than peers? A problem? > Total screen time per day
9 Examination > Observe child s behaviour > Observe carer/child interaction > Take note of developmental level > General physical exam incl. growth, ENT, skin and central nervous system > Look for Red Flags

14 Parent Factors > May impact on parenting and thereby cause behaviour issues, or cause reduced tolerance for normal age appropriate behaviour Mental Illness Substance Abuse Physical Illness
15 Relationship Issues > Domestic Violence > Child Abuse > Attachment
16 Behaviour: What s Normal? At Months: >Begin to show negative emotions - may resist naps, refuse some foods, tantrum >Afraid of being away from carer, hence sleep issues
17 Behaviour: What s Normal?

27 Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) > I rarely diagnose < 5-6 years > Assessment is complex & lengthy > Need to rule out developmental/mental health issues > Need information from as many sources as possible > Use ADHD Rating Scales to support diagnosis (Vanderbilt, SNAP-IV) > Comorbidities are commmon > Medication: Start only after a trial of strategies Aims to improve learning NOT behaviour
28 Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) > Lifelong developmental disorder present from birth > Common (1:85) > Can be diagnosed as early as 12 months so don t wait to refer > Deficits in both social communication and restricted and repetitive behaviours. > First concern may be from staff at childcare/kindy/school > Ax is lengthy and complex > Cannot Dx (or rule out) in a single consultation > May display normal behaviours (and typically developing children may display abnormal behaviours)
29 ASD > Screening tools can help but aren t that reliable M-CHAT-R/F months ASDetect App > Bottom line if thinking about ASD - REFER

31 ASD: Red Flags > Restrictive and Repetitive Behaviours The child: > copies what she hears from others or from the TV (echolalia / stereotyped language) > has an intense interest in certain objects or toys > interacts with toys and objects in one particular way for example, wheel turning or lining up objects > is very interested in unusual objects or activities > focuses narrowly on objects and activities > is easily upset by change and must follow routines > unusual body movements > is extremely sensitive to sensory experiences > seeks sensory stimulation From:
32 Child Abuse > Behaviour issues may be an indicator of abuse > Children with behaviour issues are also at increased risk of abuse > Some factors place a child at increased risk of both behaviour issues and abuse e.g. Developmental delays and disorders Chronic illness Prematurity Social factors
