Question
My son never apologizes when he does something wrong. When asked where he went wrong, he claims he doesn’t know. He doesn’t care even when he’s scolded. He deliberately does things he’s told not to do. Does he have a psychological problem?
Answer
Dear parent, based on your description, your child may be experiencing some behavioral issues. However, the best way to determine if it is a psychological problem is to take the child to the hospital for a detailed examination. The doctor can rule out any potential physiological diseases and provide appropriate dietary advice, avoiding intake of overly cold, spicy, or seafood foods. It is also recommended that the child drink more water and consume foods rich in vitamins to help the body recover. In addition, establishing a regular sleep schedule, adhering to treatment and a light diet, as well as moderate aerobic exercise, can help boost immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
