A Society That Values Its Children Should Cherish Their Parents: A Move to Considering the Attachment Network
Steele, Miriam; Steele, Howard
New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, n180 p141-147 Nov 2021
This comment on the Special Issue contributions regarding the attachment network addresses the clinical implications of the findings from three perspectives: (1) the need to look beyond maternal influences on child developmental outcomes; (2) to be open to every seemingly peripheral influence on the child as this may have a central impact on the child, for example, grandmothers, the parental couple relationship, and others not living in the child's home but nonetheless influential; and (3) identify and cultivate security spreading effects that help change not only the child, but the child's relationships with others in and outside the family--to the benefit of all. Some evidence-based attachment-based interventions are highlighted.
