This list is for parents who are concerned that their child may be struggling with an attachment need.  The discussions in my book and DVD help explain the connections between insufficient infant bonding and the development of these troubled behaviors.

The symptoms of RAD can include:

     Superficially charming

    Indiscriminately affectionate with strangers

    Inability to give and receive affection

      Extreme control issues

    Destructive to self, others, animals and things

    Developmental Lags and Learning Disabilities

    Avoidance of eye contact (except when lying)

    Poor ‘cause and effect’ learning

    Difficulty keeping friends

    Inappropriately demanding or clinging

    Stealing

    Lying

    Poor conscience development

    Incessant chatter in order to control

    Poor impulse control

    Abnormal speech or gait patterns

    Unusual eating patterns (using food as control)
