More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
The number of anxious, depressed, hyperactive and withdrawn children is staggering—and still growing! Millions have experienced bullying, violence (real or in the media), abuse or sexual molestation. Many other kids have been traumatized from more “ordinary” ordeals such as terrifying medical procedures, accidents, loss and divorce. Trauma-Proofing Your Kids sends a lifeline to parents who wonder how they can help their worried and troubled children now. It offers simple but powerful tools to keep children safe from danger and to help them “bounce back” after feeling scared and overwhelmed. No longer will kids have to be passive prey to predators or the innocent victims of life’s circumstances.
In addition to arming parents with priceless protective strategies, best-selling authors Dr. Peter A. Levine and Maggie Kline offer an antidote to trauma and a recipe for creating resilient kids no matter what misfortune has besieged them. Trauma-Proofing Your Kids is a treasure trove of simple-to-follow “stress-busting,” boundary-setting, sensory/motor-awareness activities that counteract trauma’s effect on a child’s body, mind and spirit. Including a chapter on how to navigate the inevitable difficulties that arise during the various ages and stages of development, this ground-breaking book simplifies an often mystifying and complex subject, empowering parents to raise truly confident and joyful kids despite stressful and turbulent times.

Format:Paperback
This is such a great and easy book to read. It deals with all sorts of trauma from a fall and a scrapped knee to trauma caused by surgery or sexual abuse. For most parents it will not all be relevant, however the ways he teaches you as a parent to even help a child recover from a fall, I think, are invaluable. I would recommend this to all parents.
Format:Paperback
A very readable practical guide that not only is helpful in understanding how events come across to children but also aids one understand their own past as well. This book does not need to be read cover to cover but one may readily go to topics and chapters that are relevant in immediate situations.
Format:Paperback
I find this book that I dip into when I need it and it is very good to help me understand the effects of trauma on children with great ways to help your children in life.
