Confession: Despite my extensive background working with children as an educator, I was woefully underprepared to parent a child with developmental trauma. Also included are stories of Lane's dancing abilities and how they showed themselves at a very young age!
Included in this episode:
*Lane's dancing at a wedding
*the terms "wounded children" and "kids from hard places"
*developmental trauma
*Lane's layers of trauma
*the juxtaposition of working in a trauma responsive school district and parenting Lane
*the window of tolerance is much smaller for folks with a trauma background
*Lane dancing the Whip It Nae Nae at the airport!
