Thanks Ms. Sue you are great!

You're very welcome.

the answer is "c"

The correct answer is C. CD (conduct disorder) is almost always preceded by ODD (oppositional defiant disorder).

To understand the relationship between ODD and CD, it's important to understand what these disorders are. ODD is a childhood behavioral disorder characterized by hostile, disobedient, and defiant behavior towards authority figures. CD, on the other hand, is a more severe behavioral disorder that involves aggression, violations of rules, and a disregard for the rights of others.

Research has shown that a significant number of children who display symptoms of ODD go on to develop CD. In fact, ODD is often considered a precursor or early warning sign of CD. While not all children with ODD progress to CD, a substantial proportion of them do.

To find more information about the relationship between ODD and CD, you can refer to reputable sources such as medical websites, research articles, or books on child psychology and behavior. One reliable source you can consider is the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP) website, which provides information on various mental health conditions in children.
