Misbehaviour (in British English; American English spelling: misbehavior) is improper, wicked, or immoral behavior. The term is synonymous to a misdeed.

To misbehave means to behave in a wrong, bad way.

Parents are often faced with the challenge to deal with their child's misbehaviour. Dr. Rudolph Dreikurs describes four goals of misbehaviour:

  1. Attention Seeking
  2. Power Struggle
  3. Revenge Seeker
  4. Display Real or Alleged Inadequacy

A common and traditional parental response to misbehaviour is to scold and/or punish the child for such behaviour.
