    In this episode I talk about how PDA can say or do shocking or provocative things when in distress. Many parents panic and feel ashamed, but I help break down how to best view these behaviours and help resolve them in a supportive way.

    This is an ongoing project as part of a book I'm working on with SallyCat's PDA to help explain PDA behaviors in part through the lens of trauma.

    We believe that the current understanding of Fight, Flight, Freeze, and Fawn didn't encapsolate the range of behavior for PDA individuals, and that the realization will speak to how all humans react when they go trough trauma.
