Lynn, I read your story and my heart aches for you. I think you may be right about the attachment disorder. I think it's also possible that she is still trying to get her birth family to love her. It's a funny thing about children who are abused, neglected, etc., by their parents. They internalize it and blame themselves... and spend the rest of their lives trying to get their birth family to love them or even acknowledge them.

All you can do, is pray for her, and wait in hope for her to come home.

May God grant you a quiet night and refreshing sleep.
