What are the symptoms of attachment disorders?

Sabotaging Placement

Children with attachment disorders that have been placed in foster care or an adoptive home will often sabotage the placement by displaying some excessive behavior that causes the foster or adoptive parent to give the child back. This is because the child cannot risk loving or being loved by someone for fear that that someone will go away.
