PARENTS
In my work to stop dysfunctional families from creating childhood trauma, I focus on educating and prevention as essential factors in protecting children. For me, it is very important to also strongly encourage adults who may be parents, may become parents, or may engage with children for extended periods of time, to educate themselves about child developments stages. Children behave and think differently depending on what stage of development they are in.
Understanding my students’ different development levels as an educator helped me to know how to help them and what level of engagement I should use. I think this information is invaluable to parents and strongly urge them to study the stages of child development.
