Query:

Hello,

I'm working on a story exploring the effects on children when
they witness parents being hurt or murdered. (To put it
bluntly.) In this story, I can discuss different types of
violence directed toward parents, so in the context of police
brutality or mistreatment of a parent in front of a child as
well as children who witness domestic violence in their homes.

I'm looking for expertise from researchers and child
psychologists with experience in treating kids who have
experienced this type of trauma. What I want to answer for
parents is how witnessing these types of events affect children,
in the short and long term.

I would also like to hear from you if the above doesn't apply
but you have a child who witnessed violence against a parent or
primary caregiver and you're willing to share about that
experience, what your concerns are, what the effects on your
child appeared to be from your point of view and what you did
about it.

I'd love your help. Thank you very much!

Requirements:

licensed child psychologists, authors and researchers who have
published on the topic of child trauma when children witness
violence against a parent or caregiver. Also first-person
perspectives regarding children who have witnessed this type of

Query:

Employee satisfaction isn't just good for the work environment
-- it also makes companies stronger. Firms rated in the top 25%
in terms of employee experience have the best business value,
according to researchers from the MIT Center for Information
Systems Research, who found that those companies also have
higher customer satisfaction rates, are faster and more agile --
and are more profitable. Companies that build positive employee
experiences enable workers through an adaptive work environment
and collective work habits to do the work of today and to
reimagine the work of tomorrow, according to Kristine Dery, a
research scientist as CISR who focuses on the relationship
between technology and how people work. And with widespread
disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies have had
to reimagine experience for employees scattered in thousands of
different "workplaces" -- their homes.

do you find the most compelling on their benefits?

can feel lonely in couples, in families etc. How does loneliness
affect our mental health?

5. Loneliness is obviously a big problem since the beginning of
the pandemic as we work from home and quarantine. Can you
comment on that?

6. Does taking care of something - a plant or a pet - help
combat loneliness? Has there been any research?

combat their feelings of loneliness during the pandemic?
