"[Traumatized children] have problems with their body where they can't understand signals from their body and have a lot of somatic symptoms. They can't integrate their memories. They have difficulty, of course, relating with other people. So there's a whole array of biological and social and psychological disregulation that happens because secure attachment never gave them the foundation to learn those things." - Kathy Steele, MN CS
