Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in Children. Leeora says the most common causes of PTSD in children are exposure to Intimate Partner Violence, community violence, armed conflict, physical and or sexual abuse and accidents. She says even serious illness, medical emergencies and natural disasters can make a lasting impression on the young brain. Leeora says the symptoms may be experienced directly, witnessed as they occur to others or learned that they occurred to significant people in their lives. She says researchers are finding that toddlers as young as 12 months can be diagnosed, but this diagnosis should be made with caution for infants younger than 12 months because they have limited representational capacities which are needed for the trauma to be re- experienced and expressed
