them at home. in a situation like that.

professional literature:
We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone
today. (Tauscher, 2006). There are so many reasons behind misbehaving for the kid. A
study was conducted on the causes of misbehavior among South-East Asian Children
by (Dr. M. Hameed-ur-Rehman) and (Munir Moosa Sadruddin).

Parents were asked about the reasons behind bad behavior:

 problems at home

 To get attention

 to gain power

 social media

(Hameed-ur-Rehman1 & Sadruddin, 2012) 04

The effects of misbehavior:

Student`s academic performance could be effective by his behavior; the student should
be aware of this point because he might not be focusing but this will be clear in his
grades. By misbehaving in classroom, this might be a cause to lose grades or points at
the subject. Disruptive the lesson, chatting with friends, or even bullying may affect
the academic performance. A study published on 2010 in "American Economic
Journal: Applied Economics" found that annoying students while they in a lesson can
be damaging, and it is not limited to the student himself, but negatively affects all
students.
