Choice and Emotion
I think it is fair to say that most people believe they have only some to very little control over their emotional states. Things happen in our lives, most of which are out of our direct control, and those things cause us to feel certain emotions. A friend dies and we feel sad, we win a contest and we feel happy, we are stuck in an all day meeting and we feel bored, etc. I also think it is fair to say that most people believe we do have some control over our emotions, or at least the depth of them, or at the very least, how much we let them effect us in our daily lives. The question of how much or how little control we have over our emotional states is difficult and probably unanswerable and likely varies greatly between individuals, societies, cultures, sexes, and many other factors. And, while it is an excellent question, it is not the question I intend to explore in this piece. Instead I will assume that we do have some control over our emotional states and ask a slightly different question. Essentially I want to know if we have more or less control over emotional states we view primarily as "bad" or "negative" compared to those we view as "good" or "positive?"

Conduct disorders
Children and teens sometimes feel the need to be disobedient and rebel against their parents. The behavior, however, is regarded as a conduct disorder when it is persistent, offends others' rights, deviates from established social standards, and interferes with the child's or family's normal daily activities.
