Reply to "Simple article or blog explaining ACES for parents of small children"

I would be very hesitant to share the information during a time when many parents are not feeling safe and connected, and aren't necessarily in their 'learning brains'. This article was recently published describing some of the misapplications of the ACEs Study; one of the authors is Dr. Anda who was one of the lead researchers on the original study: https://www.ajpmonline.org/act...-3797%2820%2930058-1

If you can maximize support/information in a way that emphasizes safety and connection to the greatest extent possible, I think that the likelihood of unintentionally being harmful may be lower. 

I do agree that Harvard's Center on the Developing Child has many fantastic infographics and videos, in multiple languages, that are in language that is probably less likely to be fear or stress inducing as others that I have seen.

A good video too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sutfPqtQFEc
