[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 747719, member: 1233"] I am sorry that you are dealing with all of this. It is a TON, and seems like more than any one family should have to endure. Your first loyalty must be to your daughter. Be CAREFUL with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) kids. They can be incredibly dangerous. If he acts out on the other kids, he may not be safe to have in the home. One former member adopted a kid with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) who sexually and physically abused her other children. They had to reverse the adoption because he was so dangerous. Of course not all kids with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) are this dangerous and damaged, but they all have the capacity to be this dangerous. You MUST make safety of all children, especially your daughter, the highest priority. If this means alarms on every door to see if he opens them at night, or finding a way to not leave the children alone out of your sight (even in another room or while you are in the bathroom - and I KNOW how hard this is firsthand!), then that is what you must do. I am sorry I cannot give you a rosier outlook. The others have given wonderful advice. Be aware that he may threaten the other kids to keep them from telling you what he does to them. This is one reason why security MUST be the top priority. [/QUOTE]
