Development
Anti-social behaviour also develops throughout social interaction within the family and community. It continuously affects a child's temperament, cognitive ability and their involvement with negative peers, dramatically affecting children's problem solving skills.

Anti-social behaviour is typically associated with other behavioural and developmental issues such as hyperactivity, depression, learning disabilities and impulsivity. Alongside these issues one can be predisposition or more inclined to develop such behaviour due to one's genetics, neurobiological and environmental stressors in the prenatal stage of one's life through the early childhood years.

Genetic factors include abnormalities in the prefrontal cortex of the brain while neurobiological risks include maternal drug use during pregnancy, birth complications, low birth weight, prenatal brain damage, traumatic head injury, and chronic illness.

Cause and effects
Families greatly impact the causation of Anti social behaviour.

Some other familial causes are: parent history of anti-social behaviours, parental alcohol and drug abuse, unstable home life, absence of good parenting, physical abuse, parental instability (mental health issues/PTSD) and economic distress within the family.

Peers can also impact ones predisposition to Anti-social behaviours in particular children in peer groups are more likely to associate with the Anti-social behaviours if present within their peer group. Especially within youth, patterns of lying, cheating and disruptive behaviours found in young children are early signs of Anti-social behaviour. Adults must intervene if they notice their child providing these behaviours. Early detection is best in the preschool years and middle school years in best hopes of interrupting the trajectory of these negative patterns. These patterns in children can lead to conduct disorder, a disorder that allows children to rebel against atypical age-appropriate norms. Also these offences can lead to oppositional defiant disorder, this disorder allows children to be defiant against adults and create vindictive behaviours and patterns. Furthermore children who exhibit antisocial behaviour also are more prone to alcoholism in adulthood.
