The Influence of Parenting Styles on Child Attachment

Quick fact

Children of authoritative parents (warm but firm) are most likely to develop secure attachment, while children of neglectful parents are at highest risk for disorganized attachment.

Why this is interesting

You’ve probably seen a child cling to a parent in a new situation while another child explores confidently. Why such different reactions? The answer lies not just in the child’s temperament, but in the parenting style they’ve experienced.
