Why does my child react so badly to me saying “no”?

In this video, I explain why children recovering from developmental trauma, in particular, react so extremely the word “no”, and suggest some ways to respond therapeutically to this.

The video is intended to be of most interest to those who interact with children and young people who are recovering from a tough start to life in care and professional roles.

If you take something useful from it, please consider liking the video and subscribing to my YouTube channel.
