According to Feldman (2008)‚ the emotional bond that develops between a child and a certain individual is referred to as attachment. In nonhumans‚ this process begins in the first days of life with “imprinting‚” which is essentially the infant’s readiness to learn (Lorenz‚ 1957‚ as cited in Feldman‚ 2008‚ p.89). The bond is facilitated by mother-child physical contact during imprinting. A similar phenomenon is observed between human mothers and their newborns‚ which is why mother’s are strongly encouraged

There are several adjectives that come to mind when I think of family. Security. Comfort. Fulfillment. Memories. History. Future. Love. Support. Do all these things come from the parents and children living together

Attachment and Divorce: FAMILY CONSEQUENCES Bowlby ’s‚ Ainsworth ’s‚ and Shaver ’s research created the understanding that infant styles create a disposition for later behavioral traits. More current research has questioned the significance of how the disruption of the attachment structure (such as in divorce) can affect children ’s behaviors throughout life.
