ACEs increase the risk of:
• Many leading causes of death and disability • Continuing the epidemic of intra-family violence
www.SoundDiscipline.org
ACES have a strong influence on:
• A host of important social issues: depression, victimization, alcohol use, early sexual activity
• School. With insecure attachment and an ACE score of 4 or more students are 32 X more likely to have attention or behavior problems.

they knew I could • Saw something in me I
couldn’t see • Saw me in a positive
light

• Eyes looked happy to see me
• Remembered things I liked

CONNECT BEFORE CORRECT
Connection is critical for human relationships.
Compassion= Being present “with”
© Sound Discipline
Why is this important?
Relationships matter to the growing brain
Brains are plastic. They grow in relationship.
Practice is critical. Neurons that fire together wire together
www.SoundDiscipline.org
First steps: • Grow ADULT skills • Support systems that invite adults to
reflect and shift perspectives • Social learning is not a “head” thing.
– Rethink our approaches – Make time for practice using real life
situations. – The sense of community is critical (at many
levels)
