Conduct Disorder (CD) in children and adolescents has the potential to affect every aspect of the individual's functioning including their community, family, and educational environments. Young people who with CD need to be well understood in terms of the factors that make up their diagnosis so that those who work with them will be better equipped. The contributing factors related to Conduct Disorder in children comprise a compounding set of experiences that can have life long implications for the young person's ability to function as a healthy and positively socialized member of society. This paper provides the reader with an overview of the contributing factors and a discussion of conduct disorder in children and adolescents.
