Reactive Attachment disorder (RAD) We discuss the symptoms of Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), which can look similar to autism but are actually quite different. RAD is an attachment disorder where the child has difficulty connecting emotionally, even with their parents. Factors like caregiver absence can increase the chances of RAD. We explain how to differentiate RAD from autism using tools like the Coventry Grid Interview. #autism #autismawareness #parentingtips | CBTchildbehaviourtherapy

Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) isn’t a behavior problem, it’s a trauma response. Many foster children develop RAD after experiencing instability and loss. Understanding their story is the first step to helping them heal. 🫶 You can help provide stability for youth in foster care.
