[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 25955, member: 2287"] Linda, how does one treat Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD)? How does one "detach", but be there for their child? Seems like a double-edge sword to me. Oddly enough, the professionals state that difficult child has the symptoms of Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), but we adopted him at birth, so it shouldn't play a part in his treatment, but.......! We just returned from his weekly appointment. with the psychologist where difficult child sat there and wouldn't talk. The doctor told me it was the worst appointment they'd ever had. My difficult child is on spring break this week...now WHY would he behave that way? We're leaving on Wed. for our daughter's house in MA and I thought he was excited and if nothing else, would talk to the doctor about THAT. I just plain do NOT know how to deal with this. I can't give up, he's my son, but there are days that I just want to do nothing to help! I feel like this is yet another episode of him "controlling" the situation. Yes, Linda, I hear ya loud and clear! [/QUOTE]
