Oppositional defiant disorder is a disorder that manifests in childhood or adolescent rebellion against authority. Some boys whose older partners have been arrested have subsequently been uncooperative with authority figures and therefore psychiatrists have concluded that the "sexual abuse" caused them to develop oppositional defiant disorder. The DSM-5 added a note that a certain amount of rebellion against authority is normal for young people.
