The Deepest Well
This book, by Dr. Nadine Burke-Harris, explains amazingly well the problems with trauma during childhood and how it is reflected in poor health outcomes for the adults that experienced those traumatic events.
She goes on to talk about Adverse Childhood Experiences, ACEs, and how those leave sequels that will severely impact both physically and emotionally the adults that have some trauma during childhood.
And, most importantly, she goes to great length to explain that these ACEs are equally hurting people in high, medium and low income brackets: that it doesn’t matter how wealthy, or educated, or influential a family was, if there was a traumatic experience in the children’s life, it has to be addressed or it will cause problem many years later.
I know that a lot of people talk about FOO, so this is a very interesting explanation not for the decisions from the FOO, but for the health issues that often surround people that were exposed to trauma during childhood.
