Talk:Traumatic bonding

Trauma bonding (previously deleted)
When looking at the "What links here" I saw that there was a deletion of a previous article, Trauma bonding which was deleted for copyright violation. This was discussed at Articles for deletion/Log/2005 December 20. The comments showed, though, that: "Wikipedia ought to have an article on Traumatic bonding, which is a well studied psychological phenomenon, but not if it violates copyright."-- CaroleHenson  ( talk ) 23:43, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

Merger Discussion
Request received to merge articles: {Trauma bonds} into {Traumatic bonding}; dated: {April/2021}. Proposer's Rationale: These are the same thing. I would merge myself, but I know too little about the subject to discern what information is pertinent. I do think "Traumatic bonding" makes more sense than "Trauma bonds" as the article title, since the conversation surrounds a process rather than a discernable object. Discuss here.

Origins
The origins of trauma bonding need to be established otherwise the article makes no sense. It would seem obvious that the prototypic patterns are established in childhood, where the maximum power imbalance exists, and the child has no means of escaping. Without that precondition, no adult will engage in such a relationship. The article suggests trauma bonding just appears from nowhere. ZadieTwinge (talk) 06:46, 25 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Though very common, I believe the many are established in childhood, however, there are some events that are covered in this that indicate many other places in which this starts on either end. Musherz (talk) 03:02, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Encyclopedic Language
I came across this page because it was tagged for needing copy editing. And I'll finish my work on that, but I have to say, I think we can do better here to make the article a little more accessible to the general reader. If you think so too, give me a hand.
