Unfortunately, negative experiences from the time of childhood significantly affect the lives of adults. Therefore, conscious raising of children is important.
Impact of adverse effect is high. I have seen a girl abused in childhood, traumatized till middle age. The incident compelled her to believe all men are bad in the society.
Thank you for sharing that story with us Shirshendu Roy. I agree!
Adverse childhood experience is a total failure of the parents & the particular society. Its effects are prolonged, even life long. Prevention is crucial & the solution to the problem. Very soft, meticulous & delicate handling with multidisciplinary sessions & patience is required for the post-traumatic subjects.
Hence the vigilant role of parents and educators regarding children. Without going to extreme situations (abuse, exploitation, etc.), a negative experience in childhood, if adults do not detect this situation and intervene to the effect, it can be like a snowball, which greatly affects the future, generating a problem of more difficult solution.
During childhood kids' psyche is extremely fragile, and any physical or psychological violence on or nearby a kid leaves an indelible mark in a child's soul. It cracks or breaks a kid's conscience sometimes for ever. In any such case a long period of recovery is necessary., while none warrants a full recovery.
Children are not far away from getting mental health problems and psychiatric disorders that may last for adulthood and later stages in life. For example, children diagnosed with oppositional definat disorder and/or conduct disorder may develop antisocial personality disorder in adulthood and be extremely dangerous to themselves and the society. Preventive measures are crucial and help stop exacerbation of such diagnoses and negative destructive symptoms.
Adverse childhood experiences lead to life-long illnesses
This study, which began in 1995 in the state of California and continues to date to monitor the health changes that occur periodically for the participants, aims to explore the relationship between growth trauma and physical and mental illness, and adults were asked to remember their experiences in early life, and determined the "degree of childhood experiences Harmful ”based on the number of experiences a person has had in childhood.
The study indicated that adults who have experienced higher rates of harmful experiences in their childhood have higher rates of serious physical health problems, high-risk health behaviors, early illness and deaths, and it is surprising that the data of this study, and data from thousands of other health studies collected since 2010 There appears to be a strong relationship between the dose of harmful experiences and negative consequences on health, and this means that the more the number of growth shocks that I experienced in childhood, the more the number of diseases that you will suffer after puberty, and these effects continue even after controlling the risks and even after Keep away from the offensive environment.
The list of diseases and behavioral problems that increase with exposure to more harmful childhood experiences is long and extended, for example increases the likelihood of smoking, alcoholism, and medication, as well as rates of instability at work, a preference for immobility and a lazy still life.
Among the diseases, it was found that people who were exposed to harmful childhood experiences were more likely to be obese, diabetes, heart disease, cancers, stroke, immune diseases, respiratory problems, and also psychological problems, such as depression, generalized anxiety disorder, suicidal tendencies ... etc.
Thank you Ali mohamed rashed for sharing with is this interesting study.
Something like a divorce within a family will keep all members traumatized for life, unfortunately. Often the history repeats itself with children become divorced as well.
It can work both ways. Those traumatized in early childhood may suffer from PTSD as an adult and would need long term therapy. On the other hand if they had a positive upbringing and parenting then they would, in general, experience a healthy adult life style. There are always exceptions, for example, a perfectly healthy childhood person may go off the path and do bad things as an adult. Also it depends quite a bit on resiliency and protective factors associated with the child when growing up that would work against any risk factors in childhood.
Humans are social beings, one way or another the environment has always and impact on them, and the past is a core element in their lives, you don't know how the impact of ancient experiences can manifest in your life again.
-Parental separation or divorce.
-Emotional neglect: lack of love and support.
