Is your child defiant, often angry, frequently lying, inordinately
affectionate to strangers, lacking in remorse, and seemingly unable
to trust anyone? Antisocial behaviors and attitudes like these can
lead to a diagnosis of Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). Adopted
children are especially prone to develop it. Parenting the
Difficult Child: A Biblical Perspective on Reactive Attachment
Disorder applies a biblical lens to a child exhibiting defiant and
aggressive behaviors and RAD characteristics. Using specific
examples and practical implementation ideas, it explains how
parents can apply the clear, practical solutions of Scripture to
address the habituated heart motivations, thoughts, and actions of
an alienated, angry child. It shows how to get to heart issues and
how to handle manipulation. The behaviors of the antisocial child
challenge the whole family. Two chapters are devoted to encouraging
and guiding parents and siblings who may themselves struggle with
difficult emotions. Part three concisely explains several primary
attachment theories and contrasts them with biblical principles.
For example, what does the Bible say about the idea that children
labeled with RAD do not trust and lack a conscience? It provides
biblical principles pertinent for evaluating behavioral research
and attachment therapies. Christian parents, counselors, and
pastors will find this practical book helpful for learning what the
Bible says about difficult children, including those labeled with
RAD, and how to parent them.
This practical book is a great resource for teachers who want to
engage their students with young adult literature. The author
presents in-depth, instructional units centered on historical
conflicts and texts that will help students to better understand

thinking skills. Historical themes center on: the Depression;
Mexican American migrant farm workers; children during the
Holocaust; the internment of the Japanese during WWII; the Japanese
occupation of Korea; the U.S. Civil Rights Movement; the experience
