[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 631878, member: 1631"] Welcome Mamablues, First off, welcome to our little corner of the world. I'm sorry things are so very hard right now. My difficult child used to play with his poop (not to the extent that it sounds as though your son does). We would find it hidden in his dresser drawers, smeared all over his bedroom furniture. I remember being horrified about it. We had him in therapy two times a week at that age (not specifically for that purpose) and I am sure they addressed it with him as did we. Eventually (about a year, I would guess), he stopped. Over the years we did have to do several hospitalizations due to violence. They would help for awhile and then not so much. His last hospitalization was about 4 years ago and he is doing so well now. It took years to find the right medication combo but we did. However, our difficult child is not diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. There were times when we thought he would be (adopted at birth but sometimes it can occur before birth). Others will be here who have more experience with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). Sending hugs your way. [/QUOTE]
