Yeah, watch out for the Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) "diagnosis"... no one dare stand up to authority... lol

That's a definite sign that something funny's going on behind the scenes. I wonder if it's a power play, or if the shrinks fear being attacked by pressure groups with real power. There's actually a case for the latter.
The APA is a political organization not a scientific one, they determine what is and is not a disorder by consensus of people who attended the most liberal colleges in the country.
