It’s true for every person – not enough stimulation and you can’t pay attention, too much and you can’t concentrate.

Children are no different. When they feel overwhelmed by sensory input, they may be prone to emotional outbursts. When under stimulated, on the other hand, they may be drawn to behavior that seems off the wall.

For adopted children who may have had a tougher start in life, it is very common for their ability to process incoming sensory data to become all muddled. This can add another layer of complexity for them and you to figure out.

It can make for challenging moments to be a parent and hard to know what to do to help.
