Childhood Trauma, Trust and Love

2/18/2018

Parents are the people children are supposed to be able to trust the most not to hurt them and yet all too often they are the people whose behaviour causes the deepest wounds that can take years to heal. Mary Jo McVeigh knows this all too well. She is the CEO and founder of Cara House in Sydney, a place where children, parents and families are offered space to heal from the impacts of trauma and abuse. Mary Jo is such a bright, honest and engaging woman and this clearly comes across in this interview. This could have been a hard interview to do or a hard interview to listen to but I can only tell you it is filled with honesty, love and some amazing tips for us as parents and engaged members of our community. It takes a village to raise a child and therefore the more responsible and accountable we can each be for what we bring to our own lives the more we can offer those around us.
