Reactive Attachment Disorder

Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) is a condition typically seen in children who haven't formed healthy emotional bonds with their caregivers, often due to neglect, frequent changes in caregivers, or lack of consistent nurturing during early development. Children with RAD may struggle to trust others, be unusually withdrawn, or show difficulty forming close relationships. This disorder affects their emotional and social growth, making it hard for them to connect with others in a healthy way. Treatment usually involves therapy and caregiving strategies aimed at building trust and emotional security.
