~Some families have daily struggles with a child or children suffering from RAD or other heartbreaking issues that cause severe behavior problems within the family.  Usually, the mother is the primary target or the one dealing with these behaviors the most, with very little relief.  These families often suffer silently while outsiders tend to cast blame and judge, rather than truly give that family the love, support and encouragement they so desparately need......

Dear Readers-
 
RAD families are under far more pressure than most marriages and families.  Oft times, "unrelated-to-reactive attachment"-problems in our home get buried beneath the turmoil of the extremeness of RAD.  Sometimes, those problems overtake us before we even realize how long they have been there, eating away at the foundation of our families.
