I felt the same way when my daughter was diagnosed with RAD. It was a relief! Besides the validation her behavior wasn’t normal, it had a name, the diagnosis implied the professionals would know how to treat it - which wasn’t the case. I’m glad you found IACD. I’m sorry you and your family are impacted by RAD. The lack of control as a parent - to not be able to stop but only witness the pain and suffering and self sabotage/harm is devastating. I feel you.
I just found out my son has this. It brakes my heart and he just turned 6 and I'm so alone with this and mom to 8 children age 7 ,6,5,3,2,1 and 8 mo old twins. And I am out of of loss with this and it's so stressful
Most families already had pets before they had the child and if they did get the pet after the got the child maybe they didn't know the kid was gonna be violent towards the pet. But if the parent KNOWS that the child is violent towards animals and gets them anyways then that is on them they just have to make sure to keep the kid away from it

My heart brakes for you 😢. I am so sorry.
He would bite the other kids until they bled? Why do people put their biological kids through this? The other kids will wind up with PTSD.
Yes, it is so sad, they meant good, but the bite, oh no!!!!
What is Amie's full name ? How do I contact her ?
I wish these families would stop getting pets when they know the kid is violent towards them.

Facts the pets don’t deserve to be tormented by a brat
