What are oppositional defiant disorder signs?

Signs of ODD can include:
  • Frequent temper tantrums or anger.
  • Persistent arguments with parents, teachers, or other authority figures.
  • Blaming others for their own mistakes.
  • Easily annoyed or deliberately provoking others.
  •  Spiteful or revengeful behaviour. 

These signs are most noticeable when they are consistent, impact multiple settings (home, school, community), and interfere with a child’s relationships and learning. Identifying the signs early allows parents and carers to seek professional help and create effective strategies for managing behaviour.

If your child shows these signs regularly, book a consultation now to explore support options.
