Foster children, and children who aren't "in the system" but who have experienced abuse, frequently suffer from emotional and psychological trauma. The information on these pages is not intended to be a diagnostic tool. Rather, it is intended to give you, the caretaker, an idea of what a therapist means when he characterizes your child with a diagnosis.
