REACTIVE ATTACHMENT DISORDER

In answer to some questions, our daughter's primary condition is called Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), thought to be a form of autism caused by abuse and neglect during the infant years. It is very common in foster and adoptive children from abused homes.

A good article can be found at Focus on the Family here.

Thanks for your concern and your prayers.
