This website interested me because it includes possible risk factors that could cause a child to get Oppositional Defiant Disorder. The list of risk factors that the website includes are mostly environmental risks instead of biological or genetic factors. This made me question where they had gotten their information from because my family member who has ODD doesn't meet any of these environmental risk factors but there is a history of ADHD in my family. This website made me wonder if other websites say similar environmental risk factors or if they lean towards biological or genetic factors more. This led me onto a search where I found another website that gave me information about the causes of ODD.
This website gave information on biological, genetic, and environmental factors that could cause a child to have ODD. One thing that I question is that on the first website they made it a point to say that "there's no single factor that causes ODD" were as the second website mentioned that "the exact cause of ODD is not known". It makes me wonder if there are more causes in one of these three areas than the other. It also makes me wonder if the environmental risks are fixed / changed will the child no longer have ODD?
