The children who need love the most ask for it in the most unloving ways

❓ Do you agree. How do you approach these children ❓ 💔 The child who yells. 🚪 The child who slams doors. 🤚 The child who pushes you away. Underneath the behavior is not manipulation----it’s dysregulation and protection 🔔 When a child feels unsafe, unseen, or overwhelmed, their attachment system activates. And sometimes that activation looks like anger, defiance, or distance. But attachment science tells us something profound: 👉 Children don’t act “unloving” when they feel secure. 👉 They act unloving when they are fighting to feel safe. Behavior is communication and connection is the intervention. #trauma #childdevelopment #parents
