Yes this is an important issue and one worth close attention. And there have been a number of good articles on this topic, but not this one. What a hysterical, cobbled together piece -- "Psych versus Psych" please! You just can't cut and paste quotes from other publications, tie them together and hope that it provides a clear picture for readers. Particularly those readers who are dealing with family members who have developmental or mental health disorders. You might be able to get away with it with lifestyle articles, but not when it comes to mental health. I would urge readers to look elsewhere for a professional assessment of the issues raised by the new DSM-5. At best, this is sloppy journalism. At worst, misleading and dangerous. - Sally

Hmm this woman is a stupid bigot isn't she you know you can still "do It" in a single bed ,I may or may not have tested out this theory in my younger days. My rules in my house are pretty laid back,I like everyone to eat at the table together and be nice to each other.Regarding the sleeping over bit we made it to when you are in a proper loving relationship may you sleep over in our chldrens queen beds,no random girls or guys in our house and they have respected that to my knowledge I don't want to see some random boy or girl in the morning who is just here for a quickie.My children are both with people so no worries there and they are 22 and 24 so they are adults. - Lisa Mckenzie
And even over and out here, as I tune in, yay verily the channels work tonight. - ro.watson
Our latest rule - for our 14.5 year old - is that if you are going to act like a twat and get suspended from school, then you shall be grounded for a month with all social media banned. It is mildly amusing watching him trying to fill his time in with everything BUT social media. - Ms Midge
I was horrified to read of this earlier today. How dare that woman go out of her way to make these women feel so unwelcome. Its so ridiculous, it could almost be laughable! Just gobsmacked that this occurs. How dare she. - Mrs Notable
The other part of the radio grabs I heard is that the DSM should not be used as a forensic tool..so it is not just psych versus psych. Although some of us could be classified as having some kind of mental health issue eg if we are not doing well in relationships, work, not adapting to change e.g abuse or grief or trauma. Then of course there is substance dependency... the list is long and the candidates are plentiful........ - ro.watson
My post was Divinely guided. The Lord cannot be mocked and freedom of speech is for more than the forces of darkness. - John Jay
