4.1 Behavioral Trauma Transmission; The Social Learning Theory; And Resilience

A great debate looms concerning“nature vs nurture.”And such as it is, it becomes ever apparent in the understanding of the effects of ‘trauma from generations before.’  There’s no easy answer, but we can all agree that both nature (genetics) and (nurture) play a pivotal role in transgenerational trauma.

Adults with a history of trauma have certain behaviors, symptoms, and interactions that clearly differ from those who may not have that same history.  For example, someone with a trauma history may stay up very late at night because of insomnia.  They cower when someone raises their hand (even when not to hit).  People with sexual trauma histories may be more-crass, and educate their children differently about sex.  Survivors of trauma may also be highly protective of their children while others may be very aloof.

Let’s take an example of a woman who has survived sexual trauma growing up.  It’s time for her child’s first birthday party sleep over.  She may refuse to let her child go to the party.  She may call her child several times during the party to assure that they are ok.  Maybe, she will come early to pick the child up.  In this situation what does the child learn?  We can project that the child will be wary of new places and experiences, less likely to be adventurous or spontaneous, and might avoid friendships in order to avoid the anxiety of being invited to go somewhere.  The child learns this all without the mother even mentioning her history of sexual trauma.
