The Psychology Of The Ignored Child

What happens when a child grows up feeling unseen, unheard, or emotionally overlooked? In this video, we explore the psychology of the ignored child and how emotional neglect can influence self worth, relationships, people pleasing, emotional withdrawal, independence, and the way adults respond to attention and affection. We’ll explore the psychological patterns that can develop when a child repeatedly learns to minimize their needs, along with what research says about childhood neglect, attachment, self concept, and emotional development. Most importantly, this video explores why being overlooked in childhood does not have to define who you become.
