I have to disagree, Dave. Psychobabble deals with emotions, attitudes, and human relationships. Trouble is, it deals with them on a very superficial level and is often used to make excuses.

Like, when somebody asked why a 15-year-old was allowed to go to a party with drinking and drugs, the answer is that 'She needed some space' and 'Needs to learn to deal with the issues of modern life.'

Whereas the real answer is, "I'm her parent, biologically speaking, but I've never really grown up and never learned how to act like an adult."
