[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 723115, member: 1550"] I adopted two older kids with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). Both times were a nightmare. One left us at 28 and i havent seen him for 15 years (he also asked my daughter to marry him since they werent really related) and another one was too dangerous to keep in a family. He had to leave at 13 for sexual molestation of my poor littles. But neither acted up at school. Thete was that. I do find that almost nobody knows what Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) is. Its even hard to explain. Even professionals dont all know what it is. I found my most support at an adoptive parent group. Find one! They are most apt to understand and have sugvestions. I almost never like recommending lawyers because not all can afford them. But with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) I would go the lawyer route if you can. I hope you have better luck than we did with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). The three angels I adopted very young are grown now and my magical special blessings. I love them to the universe and back. Older adopted kids, we found out, are usually damaged even before we meet them and my old notion that love will triumph is not always true. Take care and get tough! You are strong and can do this. [/QUOTE]
