Patient's question:
My child is in the first year of junior high school this year, a boy, 13 years old. The child has a very bad temper, doesn't like to practice, and lying is the biggest problem. He argues back the most. Besides his younger brother, the two brothers have completely different personalities. I want to seek help from a psychologist. How is the child problematic?Doctor's answer:
I'm very happy to serve you. According to your description, this age stage of the child is when they tend to cause problems. Additionally, having a younger brother who is completely different from him is also a reason for this behavior. He might feel that he doesn't perform as well as his brother, which leads to not receiving praise from the family, and as a result, he becomes less motivated to show his best. Moreover, parents have an unforgivable responsibility. It is recommended to rebuild the relationship with the child and properly communicate with him.
