[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 753024, member: 19522"] Yay my quote thingee does that with me too. The books I ordered are geared towards foster care- I am reading “Wounded Children Healing Homes” Jayne E. Schooler “Reclaiming Hope” Marcy Pusey I am searching for books on building resiliency in traumatized children. Ordinary discipline does not work with these kids, grounding, time outs, etc. it was hard to wrap my head around it at first, but I am putting it in the perspective of abused mistreated animals. They don’t heal from harshness. They have triggers too, fast movement, sounds, hunger. It takes a lot of love and trust building to get through the protective bubble they have created to survive. Routine and affirmation, positive experiences. The same holds for traumatized children. They have a hard time letting their guard down and trusting. They also have a lot of shame and low self esteem. So, it will be a journey, perhaps into my own past as well. Off to get some yard work done, then food shopping. These guys chug almost two gallons of milk a day! Hugs Leaf [/QUOTE]
