However, from reading your thread she does not sound unintelligent.
One of the things I've learned in my sitch is that the MLCer does not behave rationally. They might have the intellectual capability to invent cold fusion, but the fog of MLC has derailed their thinking process. The logical, rational, clear-headed adult brain has succumbed to the illogical, insecure, gratification-seeking adolescent brain.
Consequently, I think it's difficult to predict if fear, pride, guilt, or embarrassment will serve as insurmountable barriers to their return to this planet. We might not know until the adolescent brain loses its grip.
Sorry...more psychobabble.
