Many psychological disorders first diagnosed in children involve physiological and/or genetic components. However, there are many other psychological disorders found in children without any physical causes. Disorders caused by physiological or biological problems are more likely to be identified early in life, but some of these problems are not identified until adulthood. This site provides information on some of the most common psychological disorders of childhood.
The content is fine but the material is listed as a simulation. I either missed a link or it should be listed differently.

I spent about fifteen minutes reading the different disorders listed. The quality of the content was staight to the facts with no details. I think if needing to learn or teach the basic facts about these disorders it would be beneficial, but if there are any questions regarding speicifics of medications, treatment, tips on how to handle behaviors for these disorders, the information is not there. This is a very brief, straight to the point resource.
Technical Remarks:
I think it would be very easy for first time users to explore.

I spent approximately 30 minutes reading about the four major childhood behavioral disorders--ADHD, conduct disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, and separation anxiety--then, from the home page, I took a tour through several other links, including continuing education in the field of psychology, careers available in the same, as well as additional links to many interesting articles and resources.
This is an excellent source for parents searching for explanations regarding their child's abnormal behavior. Also for students researching childhood behavioral disorders.
Technical Remarks:
No difficulties navigating through the provided links.
