[QUOTE="Christy, post: 151356, member: 225"] I mentioned that I had read about this techniquie in a book about Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) but did not intend to imply that it was a treatment specific to Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) (reactive attachment disorder) children. It's been awhile since I read the book but I guess the gist was that it was a way of motivating Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) children to behave appropriately in order to gain privileges. Basically everything but the basics were priveleges and required an effort on the part of the child to have them. Rather than having total access to toys and such, a child would be given an amount of time to play with a certain toy based on earning it through appropriate behavior. (At one point, we suspected Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) for our son because he had been neglected from birth until age 4 when he came to live with us. We later had him evaluated and diagnosis with bi-polar which is a better fit.) Terry, A good place for information on Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) is [url]www.radkid.org[/url] Sorry to get the thread offtrack by the way! Your plan does seem think an effective way to get a child back on track and you are absolutely right about letting your guard down and becoming complacent. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
