How Our Children Lose Their Smiles - Mark Brady

Mindfulmom welcomes Mark Brady from The Committed Parent as a Guest Blogger today.

Any time I walk into a classroom, meeting or party, my assumption is that somewhere between half and eighty percent of the women present have been sexually, physically or emotionally abused before the age of 18; and that these experiences have compromised optimal neural integration and development to some degree; and that the same is true for between half and ten percent of the men in the room. While very likely true, these are assumptions I might be well-served to examine more closely.
