Relationships must be:
Unconditional Supportive Positive
Unconditional, positive support from adults is a key emotional need.
Adults must position themselves for rather than against the child.
A punisher damages brains, creating wider rifts, anger and self-pity.
A supporter builds brains, strengthening relationships, improving self-regulation and
increasing self-worth.
