Drivers of Maladaptive Behavior:
FEAR and PAIN
Dane was in a primal, survival state of fight, flight, or freeze.
Our job as parents was to disarm the fear and create “felt safety.”

Take a deep breath!
Compared to the general population, a large percentage of adoptive parents are insecure in their attachment styles.

2 Corinthians 1:3‐7 (NIV)
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. 5 For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. 6 If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. 7 And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
