The early parent-children attachment greatly influences children’s social behavior, and a sound and healthy parent-child relationshipis the best education

Prof. Li Dan, the director of the Faculty of Psychology, Shanghai Normal University, shared the speech of “early parent-child attachment and its relation with children social behavior” in the meeting. Early parent-child attachment refers to the emotional connections established between the infants and the caregivers, which is an emotional and behavioral interaction formed between the infants and mothers during the continuous interactions. With the safety attachment formed, children could develop an expectation toward the parent-child activities gradually, a trust to others, emotional connections and a sense of self. If the attachment is broken, or non-safety attachment is formed, then it may lead to emotional pain for the children, causing problematic behavior.
