What Secure Attachment Predicts

Captions available

The idea

Secure attachment at twelve months predicts better social skills, more pretend play, and later, stronger relationships with peers and more persistence at hard tasks.

In practice

A securely attached toddler becoming a preschooler who makes friends easily and keeps working at puzzles.

Where people slip

Many neurodivergent children, including autistic children, are securely attached; neurodivergence does not mean insecurity.
