Wondering if a child is not abandoned until age 7 if maybe there is more of a chance that they were attached to a parent and not have an attachment issue. Also wondering if it could be a good sign when a child is stated to be close to certain playmates in an orphanage? Very seriously looking into adoption of a 10 year old in Russia. Thank you for any help!!!

I would suggest reading up on attachment at some different websites - try [URL="http://www.attach.org"]Attachment Disorder information and support at ATTACh.org.[/URL], [URL="http://www.radzebra.org"]Welcome to Attachment & Trauma Network* - ATN[/URL], [URL="http://www.A4everFamily.org"]A4everFamily.org - HOME[/URL].Generally speaking, what I have read is that if there haven't been any disruptions to the attachment process in the first two or three years of the child's life, there's less of a chance of attachment issues. However, I would call that a big if....you would need to know the quality of the child's life in those years, and if it was institutional care, was that sufficient?Fran
