Memorable meeting #3
The most memorable thing from meeting #3: bonding and attachment, children cannot grow up normally unless they have a continuing stable relationship, an attachment to at least one nurturing adult. It is so important for children to have attachments to nurturing adults, if they lack any kind of "normalcy", they end up with many attachments along the way. Some children that have been adopted and have not experienced nurturing, they can spend their lives dealing with the effects. Lifelong issues include: loss, rejection, guilt/shame, Grief, identity, intimacy, and control. These are some huge issues to get over. My mind often wonders in class as we discuss the children, why does this have to happen to them? Little innocent children who don't choose this life. The solice that I have is that My heart is full when I know that we can have one of these baby's to raise and be their nurturer from birth to forever!
