Overview

From the Trenches - Why This Book Had to Be Written
For more than thirty-four years I have worked on the front lines with children and families carrying the heaviest attachment injuries - Reactive Attachment Disorder, complex developmental trauma, and the long shadow of child maltreatment. I have sat in living rooms, therapy offices, courtrooms, and school conference rooms watching the same pattern repeat with increasing intensity over the last decade.
The children who once struggled primarily with human relationships are now struggling with a third party in the room: the screen.
What began as occasional technoference has become a primary competitor for attachment. Devices are no longer neutral tools. For a child whose internal working model already whispers "people are unsafe or unavailable," the phone, tablet, or social media feed offers something the human nervous system craves - immediate, predictable, low-risk regulation. The algorithm never gets tired. It never rejects. It never requires reciprocal emotional labor.
