Impact of Childhood Trauma on Brain Development

Childhood traumas, whether seemingly minor like favorite toys being stolen or severe like child abuse, can significantly impact brain development. These traumatic events influence how circuits in the brain develop and can shape perceptions about safety and self-worth. Children's interpretations of experiences differ due to individual emotional memories, which begin forming even before birth.
