evokes fear. It is commonly violent, dangerous, or life-


threatening. Also sometimes referred to as adverse childhood
experiences or ACEs, there are many different experiences that
can lead to trauma. Some are: Physical or sexual abuse, . One-
time events like a car accident, natural disaster (like a typhoon),
the loss of a loved one, or a major medical incident can take a
psychological toll on children as well. Ongoing stress, such as
living in a dangerous neighborhood or being the target of
bullying, can also be traumatic for a child—even if it just feels
like daily life to an adult.

So now, whenever you witness or experience any form of


parental abuse, you know the reasoning and the fruits that it
bears.
