Purpose of this booklet:
2
New research shows that the
early years set the stage for
all future development.
All infants are born into the unique ways their families live
in the world. Culture influences every aspect of human
development. The influence of culture on the rearing of
children is fundamental and encompasses values, aspirations,
expectations and practices. The culture of the family helps to
determine the developmental characteristics of its children.
What is attachment?
Attachment is a term used to describe the emotional
relationship that develops between an infant and
the primary caregiver, most often a parent, during
the infant’s first year of life. It is a relationship that develops
over time and is the result of many interactions and
caregiving experiences, particularly those in response to the
infant’s needs and bids for attention, comfort and protection.
