There aren't true advantages, but someone who does this is seeking attention. Often they have been able to get what they want by using negative attention. It will lessen, perhaps even go away if they are given attention for the good things they do, while ignoring the bad behavior. It works, but it takes time. If he or she is still acting out while you are in class, look away, ignore it, say nothing to him or her.

It's the oldest trick in the book to distract from the fact the person has other problems.
