As an adult who was traumatised as a child I can honestly say it has been a very long journey to get to where I am now and I’m so happy I made it this far and beyond. Life has been a tremendous struggle whilst trying to figure things out. It’s become a bit of a life’s work and I hope soon that I will be able to help others also through offering support, healing and information.

The teacher told me to do my math assignment but I didn't know addition or subtraction. The kid next to me said just put down any number, that's what he told me. It took a while for my parents to find the problem, but by then I was the stupid kid. Now the world can kiss my ass. I don't care anymore and the family court system can go to hell for making money with abused children. It's been going on so long that there is no way I believe them anymore. I wish I had a metoo.

Abused children become broken adults and parents. Both my parents were abused as a child and have limited capacity for empathy or capacity to care for others. Yet they have 5 kids while hoarding resources, manipulating others and their children to do their biddings, put themselves first before their kid, offered no comfort or empathy. What they taught their kids is that the world it cruel and it starts with the family environment. Broken adults become narcisstic and shouldn't have children.

That seems to be common, yes, but it is not true in all cases. When I had my son, my thinking was ‘Right, the buck stops here.’ We had our ups and downs and obstacles to tackle (eg. he was diagnosed Autistic) but the big difference is that I love him and he knows it. It helps that I know that he loves me too. People say things like he is a credit to me and like him as a person. I have a lot of respect for him and enjoy his quirky personality. He does not suffer the anxiety/depression/phobias/self identity issues I did, and he has not had to suffer the physical and emotional abuse I received from my parents. He is 26 now and is setting up his own business as a videographer. I think that it helped that we both have a reasonably high level of intelligence; this is not something I had around me growing up.

This is why I don't generally like those short clips on youtube where parents deliberately provoke the child to cry just to get a reaction which they record and then post on youtube. And the parents are laughing while the child is crying. People say oh, don't be soo uptight, the baby is fine, ts just a short video...but what messages are being sent regularly to the child's brain? That my pain is a very good source of entertainment for my parents?

Currently in my life right now, I've truly been trying to heal each of those trauma events and find and keep some form of happiness for myself so I don't remain stuck in a chronic - loop of complex PTSD. I also live with horrible, chronic pain with my lower spine, pelvis, hips, ADHD, anxiety, a bit of OCD and deep depression. I take medications for all and I've had back surgery that didn't help.

Have you forgiven the abuser(s)? I have found that my life got dramatically better when I asked God to help me forgive. The triggers caused deep pain at any given moment. Flashbacks involved not less but MORE pain than at the event. This is torment! But, although I COULDNT forgive, (I verbally forgave, but my heart was blocked), when I begged God to help, He did! Immediate relief. No more staggering pain! Miraculous! I recommend God, He is able and willing!!! 😊

For 17 years, I work with sexually abusive youth, who often live in residential facilities. I now have listened to this talk full three times, and it seems to me that it reflects most of what I know and do to help them. Thank you so much for recording this! Specifically, I am under the impression that currently there is an emphasis by funding organizations on speed, timetables, documentation, and behavioral control in relation to difficult children, which makes it much more difficult to stay curious, playful and relaxed with these kids. Furthermore, the idea that behavior can change sustainably without a significant relationship is rather destructive and widespread. How much frustration is caused by this idea, when ultimately it doesn´t work. Here the ideas and knowledge of Dr. Hughes are nourishing and supporting, and they make understandable why it is so difficult and time consuming to help these kids.

Our current society is not based on the needs of society and the human beings in it. This society is based on old ideas that go unquestioned. My ideal society is structured around taking care of each human from inside. Current flow is mindless current to produce the maximum amount of goods so we can make money to buy goods. The cycle repeats and eventually leads to the break-down of the humans in them (currently estimation 40% adolecents have mental illness or health issues). We are not working with human being's natural tendencies and needs. As an analogy we are putting a whale on desert and wondering why it is dying. The structures are artificial and unnatural for the needs of the human species.

At 70 years of age, I wish a good psychologist had been around when I was young. Alcoholic parents who divorced when I was 10 years old. I attended ACOA as an adult, which was helpful but...not therapeutic. I've been "researching" childhood trauma/attachment issues, narcissistic abuse and abandonment issues, people pleasing etc., etc. for 12 years, since I've had emotional injuries from covert narcissists a few times since 2005. I've lost several friends mostly because I've become more assertive as far as not allowing verbal abuse and self centered people with a lack of empathy. This is a nice webinar and if I had the opportunity to have a trauma informed, attachment oriented counselor years ago, I would be a completely different person today.

Respect that child ... God knows he or she's never been respected in their life. Start there. If you can't do that and all you want to do is discipline them ... then do both you and them a favor and stay away from them. You will only do more harm and convince the child no body really cares. It never ceases to amaze me the person taking care of the kid gets to have a TEAM of people to help them but the kid gets stuck with one or two strangers who probably has no clue what he or she has had to cope with "on their own" and now they have to follow orders from someone else they can't get away from or keep happy . Where is their team? I don't know. It is horrifying to me. YES, this is exactly what that child OR adult is thinking. Trust me when I say they know for a fact who cares and who don't.

Tanja J they aren’t making you not respect them, they have attachment trauma because their care givers hurt them. They are testing you to see if you are safe. It’s nothing to do with the adult there now and everything to do with being traumatised. Respect and consistent boundaries will win them over. I think it took me about 5 years to attach to my husband and he still triggers me 10 years into marriage but we constantly have to not take it personally and see we are both imperfect. Kids can’t do that so the adult has to do it for them so they can learn it safely. Otherwise that child will get in abusive relationships their whole life because that’s all they know how to deal with. They have no coping skills for normal or healthy.

A tricky issue I'm curious about is how to work with a carer who had a rough childhood and developed avoidant or anxious/ambivalent attachment styles, particularly in relation to coping with blocked trust and subsequent blocked care. This is especially challenging when the well-intentioned motivation is to give the foster/adoptive child a better life compared to their own. However, underneath this, part of the carers motivation is to be loved (by the child) and for them to have a successful relationship . The specific challenge relates to a) the carers poor relationship skills arising out of their own trauma and resulting attachment styles which make it difficult to connect with the child (or anyone), b) the childs rejection triggers their trauma and attachment issues (carer feels unlovable and a failure reinforcing their early trauma). Does the supportive professional / peer need to use PACE with the carer in this instance and is this different from how a carer / professional uses PACE with a child??

I say as an adult let me help myself I’m in therapy for trauma and it’s my responsibility and respect that I may take a long time to trust or warm up to someone I’m not going to be hurt so I’m not rushing in I do have to be cautious and I am going through a lot healing it’s not easy so don’t expect me to be like someone who hasn’t been through trauma don’t expect me to act like what statistics say either I’m not a criminal I’m not manipulative I don’t have alterior motives I’m full of empathy and I deserve to be treated as the person I am not a statistic and I don’t want to be accused of or punished for what I’m not or haven’t done I don’t play games I simply am sick of problems and I don’t want to go near people I cannot trust I have a right to not trust anyone right away

Neglect Physical & Emotional also Has to Do With “Trust Issue’s” You Don’t Know who You can Trust It lasts a Lifetime sadly From the Early Neglect and It develops into insecurities .and Emotional issues too. Over time and years. I was Severely Neglected as a Tiny Baby. Even Many YEARS Of Therapy Haven’t Really Helped Me with The Issues I’ve Suffered from. I’ve got Both “severe Anxiety “ and I’ve also got “Severe Social anxiety” And “Depression” Too. That’s what I’ve Been Diagnosed with. And “THE TRAUMA NEVER GOES AWAY”

The thing about foster care is that no matter how good it is, children can't really feel they belong properly while they're always worried about being moved on again. I was a temp for some time and, I think, it's probably a little bit similar in that you can't get too close to anyone because you know you're going soon. Even though I would be back time and time again to the same places, seeing the same work colleagues, I still had to keep a distance because it would have made it harder to leave.

Just have a 9 weeks experience as Foster caregiver ..as mother to a 4 years old girl.. very stressful . She has a very insecure attachment to caregiver. Can not sleep good at night, crying and scream , come to us 3 or 4 time in a few nights.. at the day you have to been seen be heard from her. Not allowed you to be away for a few minutes. She can not play alone, can not really play with you any games, can not concentrated on games, reading etc.. a story being heard 4-5 time, can not tell what happened in the stories... very cling and needy, always looked for physical contact, your attention.. crying a few time a day, urinate in pants a few time a day.. I tried everything I can, all loves I can give, all playful Programm from morning to 20 at evening.. she got everything she needs to grow up, but she is there , she is not there! I was so frustrate during these weeks.

I saw my parents fighting since I remember myself. And my father was absolutely distant guy. I haven't talked to my father since 13 years old. Only by 36 years old I got rid of my major issues. Other people can do that too, they just need to stop blaming parents and be ready to face and accept inner fears and be ready to work on them constantly. It's hard, sometimes unbearable, take years to reaolve, but doable. And it makes you an amazing person in the end.

@@ameliel8792 I realized that my father was trapped in a pattern created by his own parents - dominating and cold mother and submissive father. He probably has never been loved as a kid and never saw loving and caring relashionship between his parents. So he did not know how to love, care and express love. But first and foremost, he did not love himself. I finally realized that his behavior has nothing to do with me. I don't need his validation to be beautiful version of myself, give love to other people and raise my future kida. I'm even grateful to him for such a tough experience 🙂

Which is why the place called soul , the center of your life force is part of this entire cosmic existence , which also includes all , even what defined as BAD WRONG , ETC .. without one tiny teeny molecule throughout microcosm macrocosm inside throughout and back again .. known AND UNKNOWN.. says the existence of u IS NOT JUST EVEN POSSIBLE TO BE LESS THAN , NEITHER IS ANY OTHER ... it's not simple to wrapped one's mind and guarded heart space and journey of what became comfort in the places they were harmed but I personally know that is possible from my own experiences, ok also I won't claim to be ANY COMPARTMENTALIZED BEING due to perception of others . I'm not rejecting the reality .. but I don't FIT ANYWHERE based on singular details concepts that force suffocation and more rejection of self continued madness. Being willing to recognize AND TO FIND COMFORT IN HUMILITY , AND GRATITUDE FOR BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE THAT EXIST AS WELL.. I KNOW YOU KNOW OF YOUR OWN EXAMPLES OF BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE .. ... I'M not saying these things to cause you to feel rejected judged . Perception is another way to describe judgment if you really think about it.. just sayin.. but in a nutshell I'd sincerely share with you infinite love light in this life and every single life before and and after... it's NOT ABOUT WHAT COMES FROM THE OUTSIDE OF ONE'S SELF... IT'S THAT LOVE OF SELF ... entitled to be done FOR US ...BY OTHERS .. justification throughout every corner as well is the perpetual LIE ... which began and absolutely served purpose and wasn't concerning .. until it eventually reached the point crossing into the EXCUSE REASONS WHY THIS OR THAT. I sincerely couldn't know shit if not through THE SHOES OF WHICH MY OWN AND OF OTHERS .. humidity is worth it , blessings in disguise , gratitude actually EXISTS it's not some vocabulary word or definition found in dictionary.. it's a freaking REAL EXPERIENCE.... . that being said please know this is not all even remotely shared from someone having all her shit together... infact the way words are defined and it's easily one word that can hook someone to the point of madness , SELF proclaimed SELF destruction and then feeding into others vice versa. . . There's 1 in control of this narrative you believe nobody cares about adults etc. Well then I ask,, when would that be something YOU ARE DOING?? because consumed by such perception it's definitely not going to be your caring about others up to those same standards you're gripping to. . .. . Your not alone.. sincerely.. . But ee need to stop ABANDONING OURSELVES ... BASED ON THE SURROUNDINGS AND SHIT FROM OUTSIDE OF US INDIVIDUAL .. .

With Reactive Attachment Disorder, it almost always happens when a child is removed from their first attachment figure. I imagine it as a child being taken from its mother and then given to another woman and told, "this is your mother now". An infant or a toddler doesn't know much yet, but they know one single thing, who their mother is. Imagine the distress of being told that you don't know the one thing you do know. Of course the kid is going to throw a fit and reject the substitution.

My child is dissociated from being traumatized in public school by malicious malevolent women who ran a smear campaign on a child. It was a mob of women running to the principal behind the child's back engaging in back biting. Then collusion that resulted in the teachers she was attached with to treat her with disrespect as well as ignoring her. It was devastating. No teacher would answer any questions. I complained about a teacher who verbally assaulted her in front of 6th 7th and 8th grade students. A screaming shaming verbal attack that terrified my child. The complaint was answered by the principal of the school stating the child caused the teacher to explode. I requested to meet with my child's teachers and was told to come back the next day. When I came back the police were there and I was told I would be arrested if I speak to any teachers. I was accused of harassment which also was not true. My child answered a question truthfully in a normal tone and the teacher went nuclear on her screaming.
