Human Growth and Development / Unit 1   HGD 0039 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Attachment Is Not Destiny

Captions available

The idea

Secure attachment grows from consistent, sensitive, responsive care, and it gives a child a secure base from which to explore the world.

In practice

A securely attached student who later moves farther from home for college.

Where people slip

Early attachment shapes later relationships, but childhood is not destiny: an insecurely attached person can change through a secure relationship at any age.
