Secret Weapons? Feel Safe? good god.
A baby could literally teach you the same thing! I watched this documentary called help me love my child. It followed a mother who suffered with severe depression, who decided to see a T at the Anna Freud center. Her child was only 5 months old, but found her mother's face blank face distressing- so would turn her little head away from the mother when she spoke to her. It was just so strange to watch that even at that age that child tried to adapt to distress.
