Answer
Behaviour which we like, Behaviour we do not like.
Explanation
Challenging behavior refers to behavior that interferes with an individual’s day-to-day life. In general, it is the behavior that is considered to interfere with an individual's ability to lead a satisfying, fulfilling and safe life. Note that 'challenging' behaviour is often seen as problematic and is often something that we do not like as it may cause harm to the individual or others, discomfort or social problems. However, the term "behavior we don't think we need to respond to" does not fit into the definition of challenging behavior, because it implies a dismissive or ignoring behavior, which is not the essence of challenging behavior. 'Challenging' behaviour signifies difficulty, it means a response is likely needed.
