[QUOTE="buddy, post: 472564, member: 12886"] That is a good point. That is true for my son. When you look up Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) online you get the full blown detached kids. But there are sites online and in the real world there are good therapists who understand it is a spectrum much like Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). My son is insecurely attached but not unattached. He has a conscience (doesn't always have access to it sigh...) and really does love and rely on me and the main adults in his life. But everything is unfair, and he is hypervigilent and wants to make sure no one will ever hurt him so he will go on the offense before that will ever happen to him again. It is an emotional survival thing from being so hurt by a broken bond with their first main caregiver (usually bio mom, but sometimes due to illness or other reasons the bond was disrupted). It is something to consider, and it sounds like you are....poor thing. Hope you can find some answers AND more support. [/QUOTE]
