CHAPTER FIVE

How Stress and Trauma Affect Learning

In 5th grade I started getting into fights and arguments with teachers and girls at school. I would go on rampages—vandalizing bulletin boards, tearing apart displays, and cursing at anyone who crossed my path. I despised my teachers for not questioning my behavior. They never thought: “I don’t think a kid wakes up in the morning intending to ruin everyone’s day and tear everything apart. There must be a valid reason as to why a child is acting out like this.”

—Amya Shaw, 16, “Living in Shelter: It Took Time to Overcome My Anger and Regain My Confidence”
