Effects Of Attachment On Children

121 Words1 Page

Attachment is when the parent(s) show emotions to their child, which occurs when parents read, sing, play with them, eat with them at the table, going to their sport games. I see it as a bonding time that parents and kids do. It makes the kid feel comfortable around that adult as well as trust them. I believe that a child can attached to more than one person. For example, my son is attached to me, but he is also attached to my mom and cousin who help me take care of him when I have to go to work or school. Kids get attach to people who show them that they care for them as well as play with them.

  • Essay On Attachment In Early Life

    1137 Words  | 5 Pages

    Attachment in early life is a fundamental aspect of child development and the establishment of intimate and reciprocal relationships with caregivers. Shaffer & Kipp (2007) define attachment as ‘a close emotional relationship between two persons, characterized by mutual affection and a desire to maintain proximity’. Contrary to the original view of infant attachment as a ‘secondary drive’ of the dependency on caregivers for physiological needs, such as hunger; Bowlby (1969, 1973) proposed that all infants are born with an innate bias to form an attachment to a primary attachment figure to whom they can seek comfort, or a ‘secure base’ during stressful circumstances. It is proposed by Ainsworth (1967) that parental sensitivity is crucial to shaping the security and development of the initial infant-parent attachment relationship, however the phenomenon of attachment requires both infants and caregivers to contribute in the formation of the attachment bond. Ultimately, the quality of attachment in early life shapes both the social and emotional
