A toxic substance has been discovered that increases risks for mental health issues, delinquency, court involvement, substance abuse, child welfare issues, domestic violence, and poor health conditions like drinking, smoking, and obesity. This substance would be as hazardous as lead paint, tobacco smoke, and mercury. If found, everything possible would be done to contain it and keep it away from children to protect their health and development.
PTSD and Allostatic Load: Beneath the skin interrupting the pathways to path...Michael Changaris
This slideshow explores the way that stress leads to biological pathology. It attempts to connect the adverse childhood events study with Bruce McEwen's work on cortisol and stress. It explored the impact of PTSD, early childhood trauma and stress on health and longevity.
Examines the health and social effects of ACEs throughout the lifespan among 17,421 members of the Kaiser Health Plan in San Diego County.
Involving those who don’t yet realize that they are working on issues that represent the “downstream” wreckage of child abuse and neglect--and other adverse childhood experiences--in the effort to bridge the chasm.
Importance of brain development for better tomorrow part 1Gulzar Khalfan
brain development begins a few weeks after conception and is thought to be complete by early adulthood. The basic structure of the brain is laid down primarily during the prenatal period and early childhood, and the formation and refinement of neural networks continues over the long term. The brains’ many functions do not develop at the same time nor do their developmental patterns follow the same time frame. Although basic sensation and perception systems are fully developed by the time children reach kindergarten age, other systems such as those involved in memory, decision making, and emotion continue to develop well into childhood. The foundations of many of these abilities, however, are constructed during the early years.

We would do everything in our power
to contain it and keep it far away from
children.

Editor's Notes
Imagine if scientists discovered a toxic substance that increased the risks of cancer, diabetes and heart, lung and liver disease for millions of people. Something that also increased one’s risks for smoking, drug abuse, suicide, teen pregnancy, sexually transmitted disease, domestic violence and depression — and simultaneously reduced the chances of succeeding in school, performing well on a job and maintaining stable relationships?
