But be really careful what sources you read. “Reactive attachment disorder” is a real diagnosis, but it’s also a favorite of dangerous quacks who promote dangerous and damaging “therapies” to parents. The child deaths from “forced water drinking therapy” and “rebirthing therapy” were due to the activities of these self-styled “therapists”. Some have also advocated physically forcing adolescents to submit to being cradled in an adult’s lap like babies while being fed from a bottle, and aggressive punishment for failing to maintain continuous “loving” eye contact at all time when a parent is speaking to them.

oh my word!

Didn't read into those therapies...or better termed...ABUSES.

One would think that a rational person would see those “treatments” as more than problematic.
