Re: Resilience/Protective factors

[MariaR1947@xxxxxxx]

I am sorry not to provide references, but one of the factors appears to be 
some kind of stable and/or positive relationship or situation which helps 
counteract the emotional chaos and which the child can 'hang onto' - rather 
like an emotional lifebelt in a very stormy sea!  From my own experience, it 
was the same school from age 5-16 which helped counteract a long series of 
disrupted care from adults which had occurred from a very early age.  I have 
to acknowledge that it is these experiences and what I have learned that has 
led me to research into child development.

With best wishes for the study.
