Does Restraining a Child Cause Trauma
A reply to a Listener voice message. This is my opinion on the question based on my understandings and experience. I've got a companion episode to this on my Patreon where I discuss a recent dental visit for my son, co-regulation and the Peter Levine concept of "molding."
