condensing water 情况，sump pump 等等。
第二，检察室部分，卫生间，厨房是否有漏水。
第三，检察天花板是否有漏雨。

发帖数: 420 | 35 zkss是神马意思呢？
我来解释一下先：书中的一个重要的思想是大脑是身体的总指挥。如果一个孩子的脑部
的发展因为外界环境的原因滞后或是受挫，势必影响到孩子的身体发育，行为习惯等等
。又比如，书中还提到如果孩子under stress，他的大脑中的“报警”系统就很发达，
但是这种不平衡会导致孩子日后对外界良好正常的刺激失去应有的灵敏度。
所以，书中举的案例中的孩子虽然多是极度暴力的受害者，但是不要忽视subtitle所蕴
藏的信息：What Traumatized Children Can Teach Us About Loss, Love and
Healing
对于孩子来说，Loss不一定是象书中孩子那样失去至亲，也可能是家里又多了一个孩子
，因此失去了一些attention。 Stress不一定来自于直接的暴力，生病住院，在一个
陌生的环境下接受正常的治疗（intrusive的抽血）的孩子也需要心理上的healing。
书中分析的孩子的语言，社交，甚至是饮食和睡眠障碍也都是父母的日常话题。 |
