Then it has to be withdrawal, because it said that depression, antisocial behavior, violence, lethargy and the inability to comcentrate. So I'm thinking withdrawl.

To determine the correct answer, let's look at each option and assess if it aligns with being a common symptom of a behavior disorder:

A) Spina bifida: Spina bifida is a birth defect that affects the spinal cord and can cause physical disabilities. While it can have an impact on a person's behavior, it is not directly considered a symptom of a behavior disorder. Therefore, option A is not likely to be the correct answer.

B) Amblyopia: Amblyopia, also known as "lazy eye," is a vision disorder that affects the development of vision in one eye. It is primarily related to visual impairments and not typically considered a symptom of a behavior disorder.

C) Tardiness: Tardiness refers to consistently being late or delayed in arriving at a specific place or event. While tardiness can sometimes be associated with behavioral issues, it is not a specific symptom of a behavior disorder itself.

D) Withdrawal: Withdrawal refers to a pattern of avoiding or retreating from social interactions or activities. It can be a common symptom of various behavior disorders such as social anxiety disorder, depression, or autism spectrum disorder.

Based on this analysis, option D, withdrawal, appears to be the most likely correct answer as a common symptom of a behavior disorder.
