I feel like this research is something all new parents should be made aware of. Maybe it could erase years of trying to change your child (and the child feeling like something is wrong with her/him). Thanks for sharing this, Sachin!
Spot on, Lisa. Imagine how different childhood would feel if parenting shifted from trying to "fix" a nervous system to simply learning how to support it. Replacing "what's wrong wit them?" with "how do they process the world?" saves both parents and children years of unnecessary friction.
