Shame-Secret Trauma

Any trauma a child is forced to keep secret.

One example is domestic violence.  Another is family member alcohol or drug addiction.  More serious examples are parents in prison, foster care, child abandonment.

Secrets do not allow healing.

Secrets are based in shame and shame is destructive.

Abused children are taught to keep certain family events secret.  Domestic violence is one of them. Child abuse is another.  Now that violent family members are prosecuted it is imperative that families keep this trauma secret from the rest of society.  Community members shun the child which keeps their secret a matter of shame.
