[QUOTE="Lovelife, post: 697733, member: 20624"] You are a very strong person Malika. You make excellent points. Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) is indeed such a difficult "disorder". I don't think many understand it, and there is very little support and help for it. Most give the general diagnosis, ODD, ADHD, PTSD, etc. Our kid actually went thru an "attachment" program at a pretty young age, because it was noticed/assessed very early on that he really did not attach, nor had he ever attached to his mother. And, he absolutely has stunted conscience and affect.... he shows very little emotion (other than anger at times) and even fake cries to try to get what he wants. When hitting or being violent it has been noted many times that it is often out of the blue, and he usually has a smile on his face. [/QUOTE]
