[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 91173, member: 3626"] I'm sorry. I know this sounds trite, but don't be ashamed. You did the best you could. Your son and the system failed your son, you didn't. You did everything you could to help him. Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) kids have their own mindset and need a tremendous of intervention to succeed. If your story is typical, you got little of the help you needed when you first adopted him. It was only after he was totally out of control that services became available. Sadly, he had choices, too. He chose to not continue his medications. There was nothing you could do about that choice. As you said, for now he is in a safe place. I hope he is lucky enough to be in an institution that will actually try to help him. [/QUOTE]
