dc.description.notesOverview: This US paper summarises the research on childhood stress, particularly that caused by child abuse, neglect and exposure to family violence, and its implications for health and well-being as an adult.<br/ ><br/ >* Positive Stress: resulting from short lived adverse experiences, considered normal and an important part of the development process.<br/ ><br/ >* Tolerable Stress: intense but short lived experiences, such as that resulting from a death or family separation. These experiences can benefit the child developmentally if adequate support is received from a caring adult but may lead to long term negative health effects in the absence of support.<br/ ><br/ >* Toxic Stress: intense adverse experience that may be sustained over time, resulting from maltreatment, abuse, neglect or exposure to intimate partner violence. Children are unable to manage this alone and this can lead to permanent changes in the development of the brain. Appropriate support and intervention can help in returning the stress response system to normal. The paper outlines the physical and psychological effects of toxic stress on children and on adult health and well-being.<br/ ><br/ >A study examining Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) study is described, and the results presented and discussed. The study found links between ACE and suicide attempts, ill health and drug and alcohol abuse, and a high risk of many other adverse adult health outcomes.en
