Hi, Thanks for asking. In my opinion your child seems to have social skill deficit with attention seeking behaviour. If such a child comes in my office, I would also rule out ADHD for him.
He will benefit from social skill training therapy in group therapy.
You should pre decide the rewards and the consequences for his good and bad behaviour. And those should be consistently applied.
His attention seeking behaviours should be consistently ignored and he should be given attention for his positive behaviours only.
I hope I have helped you.
Thank You.
