It gets better, I promise. Part 1 talks a lot about her past with sexual abuse, but it goes up from there.
I am raising a child with Reactive Attachment Disorder. She came to our family at age 5. It is the hardest thing I have done. Her behavior is beyond belief to most people I share with. There is a good parent support group on line called thelittleprince.org
If you ever run into a parent with a kid with this disorder, tell them how proud you are of hanging in there, because it aint for sissies.
by the way, the adoptive mom of the girl in the Child of Rage movie is Nancy Thomas. She has awesome resources for parents raising kids with RAD. www.Attachment.org

A while ago, I saw a documentary about a little girl with Reactive Attachment Disorder and how she went on to heal from it and become a nurse. I wanted to share this because Reactive Attachment Disorder can lead to and is much like Antisocial Personality Disorder. I thought Antisocial PD should be talked about, as well.
