[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 590882, member: 1550"] I would take them to a specialist in both abuse and reactive attachment disorder as both could have happened to all of them. psychiatrists don't tend to know that much about attachment disorders, unless they specialize in adopted kids. However, you don't have to be adopted to have Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), nor are all adopted kids Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). Still, Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) kids have outrageous, uncontrollable behavior and no remorse for what they do (except for fake remorse). They also tend to potty and poop in weird places, are often cruel to animals (not always but often) and many enjoy fire a little too much. But there are attachment issues that are all over the spectrum. Something just isn't right with those kids. Due to their chaos in their early years, could somebody who came into the house sexually or physically abused them? Your hub was a very sick man. He could have hurt them too. If he was violent with YOU sexually and didn't value his daughter, God only knows if he touched them as well. You wouldn't necessarily know and they'd probably be terrified of him and wouldn't tell you. It's too bad have to see the other parents. That can't help. Who k knows what happens there? Maybe it's best if the girls go to other relatives than him. He sounds very capable of sexual abuse...ugh. I hate custody laws. Protects everyone but the kids. I don't know how long the neuropsychologist tested your kids, but although I'm no expert, they sound way over the top for just ADHD. My gut tells me more is going on. You have to go with YOUR gut and do what you feel needs to be done. I wish you luck, whatever you decide to do! [/QUOTE]
