Thanks for the Welcome, Lady Cop, starting to feel a little left out 
. It is so hard to determine from the innocent pic w/ teddy bear of this child (matching the same clothes she disappeared in) if she plays into the life around her or is trying to escape, usually a little of both. Too many unanswered questions, but either way she is a victim. I am not passing judgement, but for me (she is 12) the video and actions of the family speak louder than the words. I am glad she is safe for now, but she has a long journey of confusion based on what I have seen. This is not even close to "pretend to be normal family". I pray for the families that are victims of unquestionable pain and also the families that create victims (sometimes they become the perps). Glad sad outcome.
