Medical trauma can feel confusing because in many circumstances, we are seeking out the very medical interventions that our kids experience as traumatic.
Trauma is in the eye of the beholder. Some kids experience trauma due to their time in the NICU. Some kids experience trauma at the dentist. Some kids experience trauma due to an emergency or accident.
Much of the time, parents feel helpless or even guilty for ‘causing’ the trauma.

- How to help kids make sense of confusing medical treatment
- A couple of ideas for how to help kids prepare for medical treatment
