Synopsis

Helping Parents Help their Children!
~ New, Innovative and Practical Strategies! ~

A Must-Read for anyone parenting or caring for a child with a difficult or traumatic early history!

Children who have had difficulties, trauma or disruptions in their first, early relationship with their parent or primary caregiver often struggle with attachment injuries. These children frequently come to reject the very things they most need from their parents or caregivers: love and connection. This presents special challenges for parents.

If you are the parent or caregiver of a child with attachment injuries, the ideas in this book will bolster your role as an agent of healing and change for your child. You will find new and innovative concepts and attachment-based strategies to help you help your child. In this book, you will learn:

• The underlying dynamics and motivations of attachment-injured children.
• How to create safety and build connection with your child.
• How to help your child re-story their life in a healthy, adaptive way.
• What to look for and what to avoid in therapy for your child.
• Practical strategies to reduce and address challenging behavior.
• How to understand mental health diagnoses.
• Some commonly-used terms related to attachment and child trauma.

Within the pages of this book, you will find many practical and down-to-earth suggestions with examples and insights to guide you along the way. This book focuses on children with attachment injuries, including foster, adopted and kinship care, but all parents are likely to find value within!

Discover attachment-based parenting to address mild to sever attachment injuries including developmental trauma and reactive attachment disorder (rad). Adoptive, biological, and foster parents, guardians, kinship, and other caregivers will find new ways of understanding their child, along with useful and revolutionary parenting strategies to heal relational wounds and help their child become emotionally and relationally connected.

They say kids don't come with a manual, but this is the next best thing!
