MISBEHAVING KIDS can be summed up as BRATS, which is an acronym for 'Behavioral, Rebellious, Aggressive, Troublesome, and Stubborn'. These are all adjectives that describe children who are not following the rules or behaving in a socially acceptable manner. This type of behavior can be seen in children of all ages and can range from minor infractions to more serious issues. It is important for parents and caregivers to address these issues early on in order to prevent them from escalating.
