Interesting article at the APA site about whether or not to include
"parental alienation" in the new DSM.

Looking
at what's put in and what's been taken out over the years is an interesting
social and cultural index.  I think I may bring this up as a discussion
topic in my classes, and have students present both areas.

Of course the removal of homosexuality from the DSM in 1986 always gets a
mention.  But I'd like to take a look at other "disorders" that have been
removed and new ones that are put in.
