Understanding the neurobiological aspects of trauma can help doctors find medicine to treat them. It gives me a deeper understanding of their inner workings and how their brains process things. Some things that I thought were just individual characteristics, I now know are outcomes of their trauma. And not only is that incredibly heartbreaking, but it ignites a fire in me to help other children like them before the damages become irreversible. Like Perry said in his concluding paragraph, knowing and acknowledging childhood violence occurs, how often, and the different types provides a starting point for creating “a safer, more predictable, and enriching world for children”
