Look for the Awe
Traumatized children are not curious, they are defensive. Creating a sense of curiosity in your child and modeling how to ask investigative type questions - questions with no particular right or wrong answers - will enlarge their capacity to rebound. Trauma-informed parenting restores the awe and wonder of childhood.

Re: Look for the Awe
This really sparked a "light bulb moment" for me. When you said "capacity to rebound" I read that as building resilience. Is that accurate? Do you have more information about the connection between building curiosity/teaching kids how to ask questions and building resilience? I am very interested in this!! Thanks - Sandi
