Oppositional Defiant Disorder is the subject I have selected for my final project (ODD). Choosing a strategy for this childhood condition might be difficult because there are several different approaches that can be used. I have chosen to concentrate on how interactions between parents and children impact the emergence of ODD. The main focus of my talk will be on how, what, and when the relationship between parents and child factors into affecting a child’s development of ODD on an individual basis.
Understanding how the relationship and interaction between a parent and a child affects the development of ODD is something that truly piques my interest. My goal is to look into the roles that both parents and children play in the development of the diagnosis. I want to figure out what makes these parent-child factors affect development. I would also like to discuss when these aspects or factors have the biggest effects on growth in a child. Furthermore, I want to determine which factor or influence has a bigger impact: the child’s reaction or the parent’s influence.
I am extremely intrigued regarding the development of ODD. I am curious to learn about how parent-child interactions primarily impact the emergence of ODD. I am also excited to become more knowledgeable regarding the ins and outs of the development of ODD in a child.
