It might be "A Child's Cry" (1986)

or
"Untamed Love" (1994) starring Cathy Lee Crosby; the story of Sheila Renstad was adapted as a made-for-television movie on Lifetime. I THINK THIS IS THE RIGHT ONE, AGREE?

There is a novel entitled: "One Child" and a sequel: "Tiger's Child"
Plot:
"Abandoned by her mother on a highway at age four, abused by her drug-addict father between his prison stints, autistic, electively mute Sheila Renstad at age six broke through her silent rage to communicate, aided by her five-month relationship with special-education teacher Hayden. That experience, recorded in Hayden's One Child, which became a TV movie in 1994, entitled "Untamed Love" and starring Cathy Lee Crosby, is updated in this deeply moving sequel. It picks up with Sheila as a sullen 13-year-old bouncing between juvenile facilities and her father's "care." "
