My child is almost 7 years old. He has a hard time with losing, jumps up and down when playing or watching video games, has a limited repetoire of foods he will eat, has problems with managing his anger and will hit when angry, sucks on his shirt, had a speech delay when younger but now his speech is understandable although will sometimes struggle to find the right word, or use the word in the wrong context, cannot hold eye contact although he is far sighted and seems to be able to hold it better at a distance, is very social and seems to get along with peers, always have to remind him to take hand out of pants even at school, is easily frustrated, refuses to do anything he finds too difficult, has a loud voice gets upset easily.......................

Hi, thanks for the query. Seemingly your child is suffering from some form of developmental delay plus host of behavioural problems. usually behavioural manifestations in a child can occur due to lots of things like mild-moderate mental retardation, depression, oppositional defiant disorder, attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD); conduct disorder; autism spectrum disorder etc. to name a few. Hence, it would be better if you take him to a Psychiatrist for detailed evaluation, diagnosis & treatment as per the cause. I am sure, once a correct diagnosis is made &treatment is initiated; you shall soon notice many positive changes like improved attention, concentration, social behaviour, academic performance etc. Hope this helps. Good Luck
