Abstract
The term aggression is common in the media. What is sad is that we see cases of aggressive children which are worrying. It is true that this pandemic has made people understand how important health is and some parents of children with a high level of aggression have started doing cognitive behavioral therapy at certain psychologists. It is good, but still in some cases this aggression comes from internal causes, certain biochemical disorders. Increased testosterone levels in boys are a common cause. Psychologists at the beginning of therapy should suggest parents to perform a complete set of tests that should not miss the analysis of thesosterone, cadmium, and vitamin B12. In the case of vitamin B12, if it is in small amounts in the body it can affect the behavior leading to greater agitation and even aggression. What is again extremely important is to perform a brain MRI to observe the activity of the amygdala and cerebral cortex. A disorder of these can be the cause of aggressive behavior in children. A good collaboration between the family, the psychologist and the doctor will be able to lead to solving the problems of aggressive behavior.
