This is truly a case of you needing to walk a mile in their shoes before passing judgement.

No, it is a case of someobody making a public appeal for help, and the public going by what little information is available. The reality is that it is perfectly reasonable to raise the issue that an extraordinarily rare disease, with a high degree of quack treatments, coupled with a CPS investigation, might suggest that a quack treatment is going on. I didn't pass judgement on anyone. You are the one who is using emotion due to your own experiences rather than logic.

Wow, I've read that exact sentence written by abortion advocates to argue with pro-lifers.

Saying that you need to walk a mile in their shoes is my way of saying that you cannot begin the process of "going by what little information is available" until you fully understand life with a special needs child, be it RAD, ADD, ADHD, ODD, CD or any of the other behavior disorders. This is not me being "emotional" - it is me giving the benefit of the doubt in having read more on the disorder than just the "quackery" aspect to which you appear to have fully pledged yourself.

LIVE with a child who has one of the above disorders and THEN debunk their therapies as crap. Go on - I dare you :-)
