I'm not going to be naiive or anything. I was already told before by her current adoptive mother that she has a few attachment issues. If I had not been told already, I don't think I would have noticed what I did. But since I already have one who is adopted, I know a lot of what it "looks" like, you know?
In any case, I'm not going to take those issues lightly, and if we do end up having her join our family, she will no doubt go through issues with grief, abandonment, unwillingness to attach, etc. and we would deal with those accordingly. I understand it likely won't be a pretty picture for a while. It's like they say, hope for the best but prepare for the worst!
