Hmm. I would think your answer would be "yes." The reason I say that is I know of stories of children who have been abandoned and are left to fend for themselves or even to be taken in my wolves. In these stories, the children do not develop normally. They might never speak or develop proper interactions with other people.
I'm not sure what to make of your friend. I wonder if she could be evaluated by a doctor or a therapist.....
