Scott Fitzgerald Mamafesto Why it's time for Mothers Who Think Newsletter Sign up for a chance to win a set of signed Anne Lamott books BY LORI LEIBOVICH A ccording to Renee Polreis, the bruises that blackened her son's body at the time of his death were self-inflicted. Her adopted son David apparently suffered from reactive attachment disorder (RAD), a condition marked by violent fits of rage, inappropriate emotional responses, severe emotional detachment and an inability to feel pain. Last week, a Greeley, Colo., judge sentenced her to 22 years in prison for abuse resulting in David's death. Investigators found a broken, bloody wooden spoon wrapped in a diaper in the Polreis home; Polreis had called her attorney and her therapist before calling "911" to report her son's death. U.S. News and World Report reported that Polreis' defense characterized David's behavior as violent and out of control David banged his head on the floor, became rigid and smashed his face on the ground and tugged his penis until it bled. Despite the defense's focus on David's uncontrollable behavior, at least two witnesses for the prosecution testified to the mother's loss of control. According to the New York Times, one of the Polreis' family's two therapists, Byron Norton, stated that Renee Polreis called him at 4:30 a.m. on the day David died and told him that she'd hurt David. "I just lost it," Polreis told Norton.

How you can help Attachment, Trauma and Healing: Understanding and Treating Attachment Disorder in Children and Families By Terry M. Levy and Michael Orlans The authors contend that more and more children are failing to develop secure attachments to their caregivers. They define attachment as "the deep and enduring connection established between a child and caregiver in the first few years of life." Here they look at the causes of attachment disorder, explain the normal development of attachment, examine the research in this area and present treatment plans. Numerous appendices include a sample intake packet, two brief "day in the life" accounts of children with attachment disorder, assessment guides, treatment plans and references.

'Attachment' is a theoretical construct developed by Bowlby and Spitz early in the twentieth century to describe a relationship between an infant and a primary care taker, manifest in certain behaviors. The initial theory resulted from their observations of infant behavior in the setting of profound maternal and sensory deprivation. Clinicians and researchers since this time have described infants who do not present with a pattern of 'secure attachment' with their primary caretaker (or caretakers) as being at significant risk for later impairments in social relationships, attachments, trust and intimacy. (Bowlby, 1951; Spitz 1945). As is typical of many behavioral diagnoses, extreme difficulties with attachment have been defined as a disorder by clinicians and researchers. "Reactive Attachment Disorder of Infancy or Early Childhood" is described in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders: Fourth Edition (DSM-IV-TR). According to the DSM-IV-TR, "Reactive Attachment Disorder" (or "RAD") is a term used to describe a child who displays "markedly disturbed and developmentally inappropriate social relatedness in most contexts that begins before age 5 and is associated with grossly pathological care."

Includes basic information about the disorder, assessment, and therapy. Find a schedule of seminars and the locations of respite services. http://www.attachtherapy.com/TPAC.htm

Therapy My mission is to utilize the natural processes of attachment and bonding to facilitate healing within children and their families. Traditional therapies (play, talk and expressive) do not work with children who have attachment and bonding problems because they rely on the ability to form a trusting reciprocal relationship with the therapist, something a child with RAD cannot do! Therefore, professionals at the Piedmont Attachment Center, Inc. rely on a myriad of treatment techniques designed to reach the unreachable child. These techniques and interventions are tailored to meet the individual needs of the child and family in treatment and may include cognitive restructuring, psychodrama, holding, reparenting, behavioral management, narrative therapy, EMDR® and Theraplay®. I also utilize family and couples therapy to help parents and siblings heal from the emotional wounds that result from living with a rage-filled child. All therapy occurs within a nurturing, supportive and safe environment with active primary caregiver participation. The Piedmont Attachment Center, Inc.
