Where Is Beth Thomas Now Living And What Does She Do?

I scoured the net (including various forums and news archives) for more information on Beth Thomas, the little girl featured in the documentary ‘Child of Rage’. From what I can gather, reliable sources have confirmed that Beth and her adoptive family continued with long-term therapy. However, Beth is now grown up and prefers to keep a low profile.

Although some articles mention Beth Thomas, as well as comments left on news sites by her family and herself, throughout the years try to provide information about where she lives today and what she does for a living, it is all very unreliable, sometimes even contradictory, and doesn’t want to be read by people who are trying to learn more about her. Beth Thomas’ life is private and she doesn’t seek attention.

I’m often asked about the young lady Beth Thomas in discussions about true-life documentaries. After much research on the topic, it appears that Beth Thomas is now living a private life after being featured in the documentary ‘Child of Rage’. Lacking trustworthy up-to-date public information regarding her present city or place of employment, there are some very old articles that suggest Beth Thomas may be working in a ‘helping profession’ but nothing has been verified on this point.

Yes, we are curious about Beth Thomas and what she is doing these days, but she is not a public figure today. She has moved on from her experiences that were showcased in ‘Child of Rage’ documentary and is living a quiet life. I hope she is doing well.

Child of Rage is a powerful documentary of a young girl and her journey through her childhood treating her extreme Rage after being diagnosed with widespread Attachment Disorder. Her story was follow up for years after the documentary ‘Child of Rage’. I attempted to gather information on her interviews, her legal filings, news stories follow up after her childhood treatment and the short period of time she was in the spotlight after the documentary ‘Child of Rage’.

Many documentaries follow their subjects with additional films after several years have passed, but following someone with the sort of attachment issues that Beth Thomas had as a child can be very difficult for them, and so she has virtually withdrawn from public life since the end of her childhood treatment. The few times that she has been mentioned since then have been in academic discussions about the issues surrounding attachment disorder, or in more popular retrospective articles about the documentary. Occasionally she has been reported to be working in a role which involves caring for children, or counseling other people affected by similar attachment issues. However, most of these reports have been based on hearsay, and have been reported in vague terms. We respect her desire for privacy, and would look for interviews with her, or formal statements from verified family members if we need to find up-to-date facts about her life.
