Overview

What happens to a child when home becomes a source of danger?

This is the question at the heart of Harm and Healing, the second book in R. Abdullah's acclaimed series The Child's World.

Drawing on decades of peer-reviewed research in developmental psychology, attachment theory, neuroscience, and trauma studies, this book examines eleven forms of childhood harm and what each one does to the developing mind:

  • Physical abuse and the body that remembers
  • Emotional and verbal abuse and the words that stay
  • Sexual abuse, grooming, and betrayal trauma
  • Neglect and the absence that shapes a child
  • Witnessing violence in the home
  • Bullying within the family
  • Psychological manipulation and shifting reality
  • Shame, humiliation, and fear-based parenting

Each chapter begins with a story set in a different country, because childhood harm crosses every culture, every income level, and every family structure. Each story is followed by the research, the neuroscience, the long-term consequences, and the evidence for recovery.

This is not a book that tells you what to do. It is a book that helps you understand what children experience from the inside.

Written for parents, teachers, psychologists, counsellors, social workers, researchers, and adults seeking to understand their own childhood.

Children are not defined by what was done to them. They are shaped by what they carry forward.
