Things change names so 'experts' can demonstrate to others just how up to date, politically correct and scientific they are and just how behind the times and ignorant everyone else is.

Yuppie flu turned into Chronic Fatigue Syndrome then ME (myalgic encephalomyelitis). Naughty children were first said to be suffering from ADD, but after a few years it changed to ADHD.
