I leaned about the fourth "F" of trauma response. I did not know about the fawn response, where a student is compliant and acts to not make waves. I was also surprised by the fact that approximately 75% of educators exhibit at least mild stress symptoms suggesting PTSD related to their teaching duties.  In my first year I had an anorexic student in my class whose situation created a lot of stress for me and I worry about her welfare still, though it was many years ago. Since then, of course there are many more students whose trauma have stayed with me though the student has left.
