Now that I have this RAD child what do I do?

OK I have ordered the Love and Logic, ordered the parenting the hurt child but I feel like thhose books can't tell me MORE than people who have actually parented these kids. CAN they get better? Do I parent them like any other Kid? This child is full of hugs and kisses but more like full of hugs and kisses for EVERYONE. She does NOT follow the rules, lies, steals, etc. You know the drill I am sure! Any advice for the parenting, what works and what does not work? Thanks in advance!

Is she in attachment therapy? That is the only way she will heal. She cannot be in therapy that isn't attachment, like theraplay or any talk therapy. That will actually make her worse. In attachment therapy you will play a very important role. It is all about you and your child attaching. No one can do it for you. Its hard work, its tiring, its frustrating. But its the only chance she has. Step one - find an attachment therapist.

Go on www.radzebra.org or www.attach.org to find an attachment therapist as close as possible.
