i know you know alot about RAD. Maybe my kids have it. But what i have read, if a child has RAD and doesnt get the proper therapy, their future is pretty bleak.

If there are only a few RAD specialists around, i checked the website, what are we all doing then.

I guess i need to look at my placement of my two kids. yes, they were both DX with RAD, and to be honest, i dont think i can handle the future if they are. We do not have a RAD specialist in our city.

I guess we might be really screwed. maybe your write, maybe my oldest son has RAD and not what i thought it was (ADHD, bipolar).

Oh well, i will see where this goes, but im at my end with this childs issues. It seems from what you wrote, it might be RAD, after all this time, im thinking this kid has attached to us. If it is RAD, then i guess we need to think about if we can handle the future of this child and maybe someone who has better knowledge with RAD would be a better fit.

If we were told these kids defintily had RAD, we probably wouldnt of taken them, due to what ive read. anway, you gave me alot to think about, maybe it is RAD after reading what you wrote, ill have to call the social worker and talk more about this. maybe we are not the write parents for these two kids.

I love these two guys, but your write, there are only a few people that have the knowledge around this issue.
