Another reason why some are reluctant to allow diagnosis is indicative of the fact that there is a multivariate scale that can be over or under representative of reality, due to the fact that most research and knowledge is based not on a whole sample of the population of children but on a small subset of "clinical" patients. (Avila, Cuenca, Felix, Parcet & Miranda, 2004, p
CD often develops later than ODD, in early adolescence, and is characterized by behaviors including stealing, lying, fire setting, truancy from school, and property destruction. Although children with ODD often are diagnosed with CD when they reach adolescence, not all individuals with CD have had a previous diagnosis of ODD (Lahey, McBurnett, (Dick, Viken, Kaprio, Pulkkinen & Rose, 2005, p

The fact that adolescents with schizophrenia experience the world on a different perspective from others, they communicate illogically, in a disorganized manner, and imaginary. This makes it hard for patients to establish credible friendships with the outside world (Vinet and Faundez, 2012, pg 206)
