[QUOTE="buddy, post: 557880, member: 12886"] That really sounds hopeful. Lots of kids, esp Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) kids can't tolerate praise. It might mean they are loved and attaching .....Know what I mean?? My son is only now accepting more praise and even saying thanks. BUT it has to be a quick compliment or a non-verbal one. The non-verbal is how we built up. Sometimes he'd find a snack at his place on the table or id cook a favorite. Sometimes a thumbs up (quick ) and now high fives are ok. I can even say I'm proud of him if he's in a good mood. Sure makes it hard to do positive reinforcement when they are so programed to push people away. [/QUOTE]
