Hi Everyone,
I wanted to start a discussion on the best trauma-informed strategies you've found helpful when parenting a child who’s experienced trauma. As we all know, traditional parenting methods don’t always work with trauma-impacted kids, so finding what helps our children feel safe and supported is key.
Here are a few strategies I’ve found useful:
Safety First: Creating a calm, predictable environment helps children feel secure, which is critical for healing.
Empathy Over Punishment: Instead of reacting to misbehavior with punishment, try to understand the "why" behind their behavior. A calm, empathetic response can do wonders.
