[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 450809, member: 1550"] I'm not surprised he has Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), however it is hard and unpredictable to live with. Personally, I'd keep the Asperger's brother away from him or always keep them in your sight if they are together. With Aspergers (my son is on the autism spectrum) these are very innocent kids who are challenged at sticking up for themselves. Kissing his brother on the lips is not normal in any way at his age nor is calling you "babe." It's kind of creepy. Do you live alone? Looks like it. If you were related to me and told me this story, I would urge you to find residential treatment of any kind for Daniel. You deserve to feel safe and have "me" time, and he deserves to get 24/7 care (hopefully help too). His brother deserves to be left alone so he can thrive. JMO and big huggggz to you for your big heart. I am your age. I do not think I could do it again if the children were difficult. I feel that our time of life is our very best time...the time when we get to cash in for all those years of taking care of others. I do not feel it is the time to be frightened or crowded. Take care and keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
