This book will save you time, money, and headaches!
I learned more from this book about Attachment disorder than from all the therapists my adopted children have seen combined! This book is a must for parents who have adopted children, foster children, or for those even thinking about it! It is a wealth of information on understanding what happens when the parent-child bond is interupted or not fostered, and the many ill effects of this, from ADD to oppositional defiance disorder. I finally understand why my children are the way they are and why conventional therapies have not and will not work!
A must read for parents, foster parents and professionals
Reactive Attachment Disorder, its causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment are explained clearly for both laymen and professionals. Adoptive parents, foster parents, and mental health professionals will all find this an essentiall resource for information if they have any contact at all with children suffering from RAD. PARENTS of kids with RAD - Buy this for your child's therapist and/or caseworker and it will help them understand you, your family and the problems you are facing much better!!!!!!!!! It could also save you thousands of dollars in therapy because you will stop working with people who think they understand but don't. It will help lead you to effective treatment. Lastly, if you are being charged falsely with abuse due to the actions of your child with RAD this will help you get the legal information you need to fight the charges.
Brilliant
This book was recommended to me by one of my daughter's specialists. It is really good and easy to understand! I found at the end of the day I'm too exhausted to try and read most books, but this book was really helpful and was easy to pick up and put down at any moment. I recommend this book to anybody and everybody.
