Reply to "CA ACEs summit's 'Follow a Child' -- what's her ACE score?"

Michelle has a high ACE score, and even more, she's just vulnerable to what "life" throws at 14 year olds. She might be having some issues at school (handling studies or navigating that social climate). The thing is that a caregiver (social worker, teacher, medical professional, psychology professional, her father--if he's in a position of strength to solve problems) should look at Michelle's list of ACEs and then begin some program for amelioration and permanent healing. Amelioration may mean foster placement, moving to live with "the good parent," an IEP for her education outlook/outcome, a plan for daily physical exercise, diet and meditation, and some professional counseling help in order to match her with a plan for deep emotional healing (tapping, The Emotion Code, reiki, acupressure, cranio-sacral, etc.).

 

The ACE score is where everything should tip toward action on behalf of the child. There are many layers!

 

(What a useful exercise. Thank you.)
