Hi,

He might be having behavioural disorders like ODD (oppositional defiant disorder) or ADHD. Kindly take him to a developmental pediatrician or psychiatrist for evaluation. Once confirmed, this can be treated with psychotherapy and behavioural interventions. Also, this might need parent training to better cope up with the situation.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
