Children often times have difficulty expressing their needs, and behavior is a good indicator of whether their needs are being met.
Besides physical needs, children have social and emotional needs, needs for structure, discipline and security.
Changes in lifestyle, household or environment can lead to insecurity, anger, depression or anxiety.
Obviously when children exhibit aggressive or hostile behavior, there is a need that should be addressed.
