[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 369067, member: 1550"] Sounds like it's probably Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), reactive attachment disorder, a very sad and hard to treat disorder mostly happening to kids who had poor attachment to a caregiver when an infant and beyond. The kids learn they have to take care of themselves and #1 becomes all that matters and they stop wanting love or being able to have feelings for others. If you went to an adoption specialist, he or she would have brought up Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) right off the bat. Usually other stuff is mixed in with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) because parents who don't care for their kids after birth usually didn't take good care of themselves while pregnant (drinking, drugs) and often have mental health issues they can pass along. We adopted a Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) boy and he killed two of our dogs. Then we found out he was molesting our younger kids and he had to leave. He had no idea why he did the things he did. We haven't seen or heard about him for years. She could also have a personality disorder...yes, they are inherited.
