WE brought our daughter home from Kaz 19 months ago. She was just shy of nine months when we brought her home.
She has adjusted fabulously. However in saying that, I educated myself by reading as much as I could on attachment disorders and attachment parenting as well as paying close attention to the forums and learning as much as I could. I took it very seriously, because you never know what challenges you may face.
We have been very blessed that our daughter has not had any attachment issues, however, we also took steps to help form attachment from day one. I can definitely say that looking back I can see times that things could have gone very differently if we had not faithful to making attachment successful.
I do realize that there are many families who also worked to promote attachment and still ended up with AD issues.
