The Connected Child: Bring Hope and Healing to Your Adoptive Family is a parenting and family guidance book written for adoptive and foster parents, as well as professionals who support children from traumatic backgrounds. Co-authored by Karyn B. Purvis, David R. Cross, and Wendy Lyons Sunshine, the book draws on attachment theory, developmental science, and clinical experience to explain why children who have experienced neglect, abuse, institutional care, or other early adversity often behave in ways that can be confusing to caregivers. Its purpose is not simply to describe those behaviors, but to offer a practical framework for responding with empathy, structure, and consistency. The book is best known for introducing a relational approach that later became closely associated with Trust-Based Relational Intervention, or TBRI. Rather than treating challenging behavior as defiance alone, it encourages caregivers to understand the child’s history and meet underlying needs through connection, nurturing, and thoughtful correction.
