We are going to try three days of intensive holding therapy for two weeks in a row. The holding isn't constricting at all. My daughter will lay in my lap or my husbands, and look at us, making as much eye contact as possible while the therapist takes us through conversation and therapy issues. We did one week of three days last summer and it seemed to make a difference for a little bit.
Issues she is still dealing with include peeing on herself when she gets mad. She won't tell anyone, or lies about it when confronted.
She wants to be the boss all of the time and does not want to accept anyone telling her what to do.
Is it wrong to expect a child with attachment disorder to change any of these things before she comes back into the house?
Is it a reasonable expectation to have a RAD child come back into the home after being away for 15 months?
Does anyone know if holding therapy works?
Is there any method that is better than others?
How do other parents deal with children being away from their home?
How do you deal with the sadness?
I have 3 other children and I have to keep them in mind as far as the safety of our home and their well being.
