AGGRESSIVE CHILD BEHAVIOR 2
The lot in life scenario provides information on an 11-year-old boy who has been
suspended numerous times by the school officials for being involved in fights. The scene
portrays one fundamental issue which plagues the mother, i.e., aggressive child behavior. It is
clear that the scenario also provides other vital problems which coexist with the current
character of Tommy. One such issue is the lack of coping skills which would help Tommy.
Aggressive child behavior is often seen in children who will be involved in brawls at
home and frequently, in school. Fighting in school is common both sexes. Such character will
take many forms which will include the child throwing a tantrum, the child biting or hitting
another child or the parent, verbal attacks and so on. Such behavior is quite typical in boys
who from the 2nd grade, the 4th grade and the 6th grade. The aggressive behavior will be
brought about by an adverse outcome of an event or will be instigated by someone whose
intent will either be hostile or benign (Dodge, 1980).
To many, aggression in a child is a sign of some underlying condition which might be
plaguing the child. The underlying conditions will include, a medical disease, a psychiatric
condition or specific environmental factors which may make the child to lack the appropriate
coping skills needed while within his peers. Other causes of aggression will be linked to
particular disorders and frustrations which will be experienced by the child. The lot in life
scenario shows that there is some level of frustration being face by the 11-year-old child
which has made it difficult for him to cope with his peers. The failures will be experienced in
children who have a cognition problem or is autistic (Frame, 1982).
