Key Points Summary
1. Some children enjoy secure attachments,
positive experiences & plentiful enrichment as they grow.
This builds strong neural circuitry in the important areas
of Executive Functioning
2. Other children aren’t so lucky. They don’t have such great
experiences or secure attachments. This causes weaker
neural circuitry and means their skills to focus, regulate
feelings, manage impulses and be flexible are weaker. Is
this their fault? No.
3. Some children don’t develop strong neural circuitry due
to biological neurodiversity (e.g. autism, dyslexia, DCD, ADHD).
