Emotional and Behavioral Changes in Children After Brain Injury

Parents and teachers need to learn about the myriad changes that can happen after a TBI; every child -- and his injury -- is different.

This lady knows whereof she speaks. My congratulations to Brainline for using such a knowledgeable, articulate spokesperson.

Whoah, super interesting.. I did some weird and odd things as a kid. I also struggled with certain things. I remember being in second grade and totally unable to follow and keep up with what was going on. I just didn't learn it lol. I tend to like to figure things so I still was able to fairly well academically as a child despite certain setbacks. In third grade I was tested for the advanced program, but couldn't get in bc I had substantial gap in my intelligence. They gave me a round soccer ball puzzle and I ended up trying to fit each piece until it matched one at a time. When that failed I insisted it was a trick puzzle lol. I have no idea why I couldn't do it. Still hate puzzles. They said I had an unusual gap between the language arts and mathematics. They said I could probably excell at a variety of things academically but probably not engineering. I was also somewhat socially oblivious and randomly displayed behavior that didn't make sense. I had my first brain injury at 3 months old and second at 16.
