Is there other's out there? RAD.

In retrospect, my "daughter," was clinically diagnosed with "RAD" (Reactive Attachment Disorder) "Ininhibited." This was at age 17. Never got treatment, and is the reason for her leaving my son and their two children, and immediately immersing herself into a polly amorous relationship. I know this to be true. We ignored this diagnosis because we thought just giving her love and trust would be enough. It was not. She continues to ignore her condition and chooses to remain in present relationship rather than reestablish her relationship with her children, husband, or us, (her mom and dad.) She wants her cake and eat it too. But that's not reality.
Anyone else here with personal experience in such a disorder?

It's very sad but honestly, your time investment is better spent on your son and grand children. They need you more. DIL, is in self destructive mode and will eventually self implode. You all may one day, try to pick the pieces up, but she was DOA, before she married your son. May God, bless her. He will always love and look after her. She did leave a miraculous, parting gift. The damage has been done and things will never be the same.

Try to focus on healing the after effects of this family nuclear attack.

The long term devastating effects, will once again, continue a very vicious cycle of destruction. You have a very short time frame and window of opportunity, to turn this ship around! May God continue, to bless your family! ❤️🙏

@Oster1 👍👍🙋‍♀️Nailed It! Thank you. We will follow this path and only focus on our son and grandchildren. She's an adult and must live with her choices and consequences.

Thank you, for BC! I never enjoy, under these circumstances.

I have seen this happen, more times, than I want too.

I'm in business, served on many Boards Of Directors, both business and community service, with around two hundred employees.

Your family tragedy, is so common now. The Family, is under attack.

What I wrote to you, is what I give public speeches on, monthly.

If I can ever help you, I'm here. I love your family! ❤️🤗🙏

Maybe she’s sick mentally and turned lesbian. Maybe she realized that too late. Give her time, I think she will miss her children in time. ☹️

@SW-User she does every evening, but her two year old reacts with negative and anger issues.

Sad because a two year old needs his mother. @Montanaman

@SW-User There are many cases where mothers do not bond with their babies. It's tragic but it does happen for a variety of reasons - not just with humans either

Interesting. I had never heard of it, and looked it up. Sounds like something I had dealt with as a child and in my early adulthood, later causing depression. I won't go into detail, but all is good now. Well, little bit of depression occasionally, but not often.

I agree with others, in that you have your son and grandchildren with you. That's what's important now. Focus on them. 🤗❤️

I have heard it related to bipolar disorders.

@Montanaman there is a new medication for bipolar which has a safer spectrum than the older ones, but, she needs to want to get better.

Montanaman · M

@samueltyler2 She continues to ignore her mental health issues. 😔🤗🙏❤️

How are you her dad when she is married to your son?

Montanaman · M

@MartinTheFirst Because my relationship with her is that of a daughter instead of an in-law.

What was the trauma that led her to this?

Montanaman · M

@SW-User the oldest of 7 children. Mormon. Forced to raise her siblings when she was still a child. Mother dird at age 35. Underage sexual molestation...
Yeah, she's got a full suitcase that's for sure. 😔🤗🤗

SW-User

@Montanaman that is so sad

My thoughts are with you and your family - it is a very hard thing for the children and very damaging 😢

Montanaman · M

@SW-User Thank you very much. 🤗🤗❤️
