EP 214: Helping Kids with Medical Trauma with Rose LaPiere

The Baffling Behavior Show {Parenting after Trauma}

Medical trauma can feel confusing because in many circumstances, we are seeking out the very medical interventions that our kids experience as traumatic.

Trauma is in the eye of the beholder. Some kids experience trauma due to their time in the NICU. Some kids experience trauma at the dentist. Some kids experience trauma due to an emergency or accident.

• A couple of ideas for how to help kids prepare for medical treatment
