"According to Dr. Bruce Perry (2003), an expert on children maltreatment and traumatized children, he purports that traumatic childhood events constructs a host of risk factors including social factors (e.g. adolescent drug abuse, victimization, teenage pregnancy, school failure, and anti-social behavior), medical problems (e.g. heart disease and asthma), and neuropsychiatric disorders (e.g. stress disorder, conduct disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder)....
"In summary, consequences of trauma may vary with each child, so it is vital explore or rule out the possibility of trauma in children exhibiting atypical behaviors. It’s important to use a child’s behavior as his or her language."
