Disruptive Behavior Disorder, DBD

It is best for the teacher to quickly identify the student with Disruptive Behavior Disorder. Document their behavior and have them removed from your class as quickly as possible.  It is not just the youth that can be disruptive.  Before going on to adult, I'll mention a few ways that students can be disruptive.
  1. Coming to class late.
  2. Conspiring with peers to do something disruptive.
  3. Asking questions with the intent of confusing the teacher.
  4. Discrediting the teacher, just to name a few.
My uncle Jim who was a Chemistry teacher would ask a question and then ask that the answer to the question be explained.  Nested questions create confusion a situation where the answer eventually cannot be understood and the speaker not know what they are talking about.

I had another family member that would constantly ask, "What is the difference."  And, yet another one that would ask, "Cause, why?"

Danny, an adult at the Dog Park prides himself in being able to create a situation where the other person does not know what they are talking about.

I have heard that it takes all kinds to make a world.  However, you cannot be an effective teacher if the person with a Disruptive Behavior Disorder is allowed to act-out in your class. If you cannot stop them.  Then have them removed.
