Troublemakers

/ˈtrʌbəlˌmeɪkərz/ noun

Definition

People who cause problems, conflicts, or difficulties for others.

Etymology

Compound word from 'trouble' (Old French 'turble,' meaning to disturb) plus 'maker' (one who makes), formed in English around the 1600s.

Kelly Says

Studies show that troublemakers in classrooms often aren't the least intelligent—sometimes they're intelligent kids who are bored and need more challenging material to stay engaged.
