Attachment
Captions available
The idea
Attachment is the enduring emotional bond between an infant and a primary caregiver.
In practice
An infant crawls back to a caregiver periodically while exploring an unfamiliar room.
Where people slip
Attachment is a relationship, not a trait of the child. The same child can attach differently to two caregivers.
