A couple weekends ago my husband and I attended a live simulcast training called Empowered to Connect. Man, do I ever wish I had that training years ago going into helping hurt children or even with raising my biological children. Better late than never though:)
Opening our eyes up to what is going on behind the behaviors that we see in children. How to be better equip to help these children overcome their challenges. Learning to understand that what we perceive as willful disobedience may just be to them survival skills.
I recommend that if you are a foster or adoptive parent, thinking about being one, have biological children or work with children to any degree to read,"The Connected Child", by Drs. Karyn Purvis and David Cross. Also with Wendy Sunshine. I am reading it now and it continues to confirm the information I learned at the training. Bringing hope and healing to our families!!!
