Overview

What if the child you think is ""defiant"" is really drowning in an invisible storm? Every day, millions of children walk into classrooms carrying a nervous system wired for survival. What looks like laziness, refusal, or defiance is often something far deeper: trauma trapped in the body, turning focus into fog, transitions into battles, and learning into an impossible task. For parents and teachers, the result is heartbreaking-constant meltdowns, discipline strategies that backfire, and a child who feels misunderstood, unsafe, and alone. But what if there was another way? What if, instead of demanding compliance, we chose connection? Trauma Dysregulation in Kids is more than a book-it's a lifeline for anyone who has ever looked at a struggling child and thought, ""There must be something I'm missing."" Inside, you'll discover how to: * Recognize the hidden ways trauma shows up as ""misbehavior"" in classrooms and homes. * Understand the nervous system's fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses-and why children can't simply ""snap out of it."" * Shift from discipline-first approaches to regulation-first strategies that actually work. * Create micro-moments of safety that calm the storm inside a child's body. * Use practical tools-from breathwork to co-regulation-that help kids find focus, resilience, and hope. * Build bridges between families and schools so healing doesn't happen in isolation. This book doesn't offer quick fixes or rigid programs. Instead, it gives you the insight and tools to see the child behind the behavior, to understand their nervous system's cries for safety, and to meet them where they are. If you've ever wondered why traditional discipline fails, why some kids seem unreachable, or why your best efforts leave you exhausted and them still struggling, you are not alone. And you are not powerless. ✨ Imagine classrooms where safety comes before schoolwork. Homes where meltdowns don't define a child's worth. Communities where children grow not because we demand compliance, but because we nurture connection. That vision is possible-and it starts with you. If you are ready to move beyond punishment and discover the power of regulation, compassion, and nervous system awareness, this book will show you how.
