Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

I understand that you are concerned about your son's declining academic performance and behavioural problems. Now, these problems could be due to a variety of causes like learning disability, conduct disorder or other behavioural problems.

From the limited information that you have provided, it is difficult to arrive at a definite diagnosis. He will need a dettailed evaluation and psychological assessment in order to pin point the diagnosis. So, I would suggest that you take him to a child psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation and further management.

Wish you all the best.

Regards,
Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
