RAD or Reactive attachment disorder has become a thoughtful issue for most parents, owing to its severity and its rising frequency among children below 5 years. A child, who is suffering from RAD, is most likely to be defiant, aggressive, shows little interests in social attachments and is full of negative approach towards others. Though there are a couple of genetic as well as environmental factors attached to it, yet mostly it happens because of negligence and lack of proper attention by parents. In fact, lack of interest in the emotional or security requirements of the child results in chronic Reactive attachment disorder. Other than RAD, Oppositional defiance disorder or ODD is another problem that a neglected child may face.
