Early Attachment Analysis
The interactions we first have with our primary caregivers can shape our relationships as adults. No one can doubt that children are most influenced first by their families nor the importance of the parents' role on a child's development and how it can affect their future.
Early attachment is influential on one's life and children's attachment styles develop from a combination of biological influences and social learning (Schneider, Gruman & Coutts, 2005).
The primary caregiver's behaviour and interaction towards an infant could affect and shape their expectations and interactions with others throughout their lives.
Depending of the attachment style that children have been exposed to, they develop patterns that affect their responses to …show more content…
This includes any immediate relationships they interact with, such as their immediate family and their school.
How these interact with the child will have an effect on how the child grows; the more encouraging and nurturing these relationships are, the better the child will be able to grow.
The mesosystem, describes how the different parts of a child's microsystem work together.
If a child's parents take an active role in school, such as going to parent-teacher meetings and attending shows, this will help the child's overall growth. However, if the child's parents disagree on how to best raise the child and give the child conflicting lessons, this will discourage the child's development.
The exosystem is the external people and places that do not directly interact with the child but can still affect it indirectly. This includes extended family, parent’s work and the neighbourhood.
For example, if a child's parent loses their job, that may have a negative effect on the child. Inversely, if a parent gets a better paid job, this may have a positive effect on the child.
Bronfenbrenner's last level is the macrosystem. This is the largest set of people/places/things but it is also the most
