Child Abuse Trauma Can Lead To A Number Of Abnormal Behavioral TraitsDire Consequences Child abuse may take the form of physical, sexual, emotional abuse or sheer neglect. Child abuse trauma may incur dire consequences in the well being of the child through its childhood as well as prolongs itself into adulthood. The child may become impaired in its social behavior, or be alienated and withdraws into themselves, have suicidal tendencies, takes to substance abuse, has eating disorders and encounters problems with school work or may find it difficult to cope with the stress of work, and may take other unwanted escape routes that are considered abnormal. Child abuse trauma can be extreme, and may depend on the severity of the abuse as well as the surrounding environment of the child. With a supportive as well as nurturing family and school environment, the child will be able to cope better with the trauma. However, it may not be the event that determines if something is traumatic or not; rather, it is the child's perception of the event. There is much literature being churned out regarding child abuse trauma and this can be especially helpful for abuse specialists as well as for general therapists who need to understand the connection between many forms that the child takes to vent his or her pent up feelings. Child abuse trauma can take the form of severe psychiatric problems, and children would likely develop reactive attachment disorder which may also be described as their having trauma-attachment problems. Disorganized attachment is normally associated with many different developmental problems that include dissociative symptoms and also anxiety, depression and acting-out symptoms. An instance of child abuse trauma can become further aggravated because of circumstances that place families under more stress such as poverty, divorce, sickness, disability as well as lack of parental skills. It requires understanding the root cause of abuse so that methods may be developed to prevent as well as treat child abuse trauma victims. Children with such symptoms may be treated with Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy as well as cognitive behavioral therapy interventions, education, and EMDR. |
