Attachment

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Attachment is the enduring emotional bond between an infant and a primary caregiver.

Show

An infant crawls back to a caregiver periodically while exploring an unfamiliar room.

Watch for

Attachment is a relationship, not a trait of the child. The same child can attach differently to two caregivers.
