So sad
I wonder about Reactive Attachment Disorder as well (a common disorder in adoptive kids and foster kids) How many disorders are being misdiagnosed. There really needs to be more education on this. I had no idea how common it is and got no info on this during both of my pregnancies. The focus was all on SIDS.
