Abstract
The emotional bond between the primary caregiver and the child serves as a foundation for an individual’s well-being both during childhood and later life. The evolution of these bonds may be a fragile process and largely depends on the caregiver’s actions and mental well-being. An avoidant and distancing mentality can have long historical roots across generations and it can be culturally specific. Neglect may result from both personal and social traumatic events, such as wars or famines, as well as everyday repetitive trauma. This chapter will investigate the coping mechanisms—both positive and negative—of Finns during and after the Great Wrath (1712–1721), which proved to be a traumatic period for many adults and children. The cultural and social coping mechanisms will be identified based on sites related to the events of the Wrath, historical sources, memorials, folklore, and burial evidence. These will be examined through psychological knowledge on how children respond to traumatic events, how it affects their well-being in later life, how trauma is transmitted between generations, and how it manifests in violent acts. The chapter will also consider how competence, empathy, and mentalising can provide resilience and be restorative for both individuals and groups of people.
