A 12-year-old girl arrives at the office for her annual exam. The mother is concerned about her daughter's conduct and academics, and she adds, "She is obstinate, angry, highly emotional, and refuses to listen. She also appears to be angry of her twin brother and purposefully bothers or disturbs him. I can't seem to get her to perform her chores, schoolwork, or go to bed on time." The school guidance counselor has phoned the mother numerous times in the last year about her daughter talking back to instructors and skipping classes. The patient describes school as "boring" and blames her conduct on "pointless restrictions and demanding demands," claiming that all of her instructors are "dumb." Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis in this patient?
A) Antisocial personality disorder
B) Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder
C) Conduct disorder
D) Disruptive mood dysregulation disorder
E) Normal adolescent behavior
