Preventing Childhood Trauma and Reducing its Long-Term Effects [now.iowa.edu]

Including info about why many parents lose it would also be very helpful. If parents understand their own ACEs, they have a better chance of recognizing the triggers and taking a deep breath before changing direction.

Remember the PSAs in the 60's and 70's that "taught" us not to litter (the Native American with a tear rolling down), & not to smoke (the little boy copying the Dad in a series of things, and then the dad lighting up)?  I must have been in grade school.  These are ads I remember 50 years later.

Why not  a few PSAs 'teaching' responsive parenting and self calming techniques?   It could show a series of typical parenting challenges and how to handle them.  It could explain that the calmer, happier, and more content you can make a baby, FAR from spoiling them, will make them more chill, content people FOR LIFE.   

There are still people/ parenting books that say picking up a crying baby "spoils' them.  In fact,, it's the opposite: ignoring a crying baby HURTS the baby!
