Instead of seeing lying and stealing as problems topunish, you'll learn to recognize them as communication about what children need to feel safe and secure.This practical guide provides:Clear explanations of how trauma affects children's brains and behaviorsSpecific strategies for responding with understanding rather than punishmentStep-by-step approaches to building trust and encouraging honestyReal stories of children who moved from survival behaviors to secure attachmentTools for creating safety that make lying and stealing unnecessaryWritten in an accessible, conversational style, this book speaks directly to foster parents who want to see past behaviors to the hurtunderneath.
