Nope, Pixie's perfect (no really).

This was my first placement, she was 9 and lived with us for 7 months. We had intensive in home therapy after moving quickly through 2 worthless therapists. I would not say she ever attached. But, we were able to get much better control of her behaviors and she became more and more accepting of love and affection (the appropriate kind). I don't know if she will ever attach, it depends on what her relatives are doing to help her work through her issues now.
