    I find the balance so hard. I understand that traditional consequences and rewards are not ideal for traumatised children. But they also need to learn that certain behaviour is unacceptable, and will get them into a lot of bother if they carry on the same way into adulthood.

      Totally, I think timing is part of an approach that maintains those expectations but does not exacerbate dysregulation. I also know that children with additional needs need reasonable accommodations. Ultimately, I see we need an individualised and contextualised response.
