I've never heard of the water thing, but I have read about how dangerous RAD kids' rages can be--to themselves and others (just read of a mom whose nose was broken by a toddler!). If that's what it takes to snap them back to reality, and a therapist agrees, then that's what it takes.
To everyone else, before you start accusing a parent of abuse, walk a mile in her shoes!

I am offended that you posted this statement. Everyone was trying to help you and you felt the need to put us down.
I think most of the posters on this site have walked a mile or two or three in her shoes. I have been spit on, scratched, bit and peed on during a rage. However, I have NEVER thrown water on my daughter to humiliate her. It does nothing to help her heal. Parenting these children isn't about you, its about them. Everything you do should be focused on their healing.
The fact that you back up this type of parenting tells me that you are not ready to parent damaged children.
