If they were in an institution for all of their lives, they'll likely have attachment problems. However, they are young enough that with adjustments in parenting and attachment based therapy, even if they are RAD, they can likely heal in 12 to 18 months.
It's best, in my opinion, for a parent to stay at home for the first six months, rock their child daily, and spend time on the floor playing and interacting with their child.
