She does not speak. She will just sit and rock back and forth while sucking her thumb.

How do we break though the invisible wall that separates her and us?

I have a little like that. He is a boy who is 5yrs old. He stays under the stairs and likes Legos. He says nothing at all. I did well to find out his name from him! And he also will just look at light and rocks. I suppose we just have to be patient with them. I do have a protector alter and we have started having "house" meetings and I wanted him to come. He shows up but always hiding behind the protector alter.
Thanks for this!
