Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB)

Anti-social behaviour covers a wide range of unacceptable activity that may cause harm to an individual, to their community or to their environment. This could be an action by someone else that leaves an individual feeling alarmed, harassed or distressed and impacts their quality of life.

It is normal for children and young people to exhibit some antisocial tendencies, like being withdrawn or mildly rebellious. But for some children and young people, those tendencies can signal something more alarming.

In this section you will find materials that offer information and guidance if you are concerned that anti-social behaviour is prevalent in the lives of a child or young person that you are working with.
