Facilitating Developmental Attachment: The Road to Emotional Recovery and Behavioral Change in Foster and Adopted Children

This is a good book on children with attachment disorder and practices that can help professionals facilitate change and positive, healthy attachment between these children and their foster/adoptive families. Hughes is a very knowledgeable and caring professional who truly cares about his clients. I will definitely refer back to this book if I have clients with severe attachment disorders who need to bond with their new parents. More child mental health professionals need to read this--in fact I think if a high school friend's therapists had read this she might still be alive today.

Decent book for working with foster children with RAD. Most of book was very clinical. There was a section for working with the parents who have the child. Very specific topic.

Very informative and an easy read. I read it one night in one sitting.

We have been through quite a journey so far with our newly adopted girls, 7,8. Many resources are ineffective that the special needs program gives you when you start. This book helps you understand and work through the special issues of neglected and abused children. I wish we had this book before we evedr adopted.

You will never go wrong with anything Daniel Hughes has to say on this topic. This book is totally helpful and informative.

We adopted a pre teenager with an attachment disorder and this is one of our favorite books. It is easy to read as well.

Good info.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Great book! Recommend for ease of reading and information!

Great help to understanding our adopted daughter and the effects of early years neglect. Real lifeline in this respect. This book has so many helpful insights ans still less than 25% through it! Highly recommend for all adopters and foster carers to read.

What a brilliant book on a difficult subject matter

I am a foster parent and most certainly will read this book several time. The real examples and case studies make it very easy to read. I could hardly set it down. Loved it!

OK

Well written as all of Mr Hughe's boks are.
