A Family's True Journey Through Childhood Trauma

This is the moving story of one adoptive family's struggle to understand and overcome the hidden wounds of childhood trauma. Written with warmth and clarity, it offers parents and caregivers insight into Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), and Conduct Disorder (CD).

Through Layla's journey, readers see how early signs of these disorders emerge and how different choices and timely intervention might have changed her path. Amber, her mother, shares with honesty the confusion, heartbreak, and hard lessons she faced while trying to love and guide her daughter.

Though the challenges were immense, this story carries a message of hope. It reminds families considering fostering or adoption to seek knowledge, embrace the journey, and hold fast to love. Ultimately, it is not only the love we give, but the love a child can receive, that opens the way to healing.
