Exploring How Parental Divorce Before the Age of Six Affects The Child’s Attachment Relationships in Adulthood.

In the United States, the possibility of getting married and getting divorced is currently 50%. Therefore, many children will also experience the divorce process. It is noteworthy that many children divorced before becoming six years old. This is very important for their development. The most important thing is that children are working hard to make safe accessories from early childhood to early childhood (pre-school). There is not much research on the influence of divorce on children under 6 years old.

Parent - The development of baby's attachment is a complex process that brings deeper attachment as children grow older. This attachment (or lack of such attachment) has a lifelong impact on the achievement of the child's term. Bowlby assumed four affection phases starting from early childhood: pre-affection, affection during production, explicit attachment, and formation of relationship. Preattachment (born in 6 weeks): Built-in signals such as crying and snore enable the newly born baby to get closer to your caregiver. The baby recognizes the fragrance and sound of the caretaker and can be comforted with these things. When the caretaker picks up the baby or smiles at her, it starts the beginning of affection. However, as there is no complete attachment, the baby is still very easy to leave a stranger.

By seeking self-seeking in adolescence and early adulthood and seeking to leave gradually from your home, individuals ultimately have the ability to become attachment relationships (romantic relationships) with other adults and their descendants' attachment Establish. The normal development of a young man seeking general autonomy seems to mean breaking the attachment relationship with parents, but in fact the opposite is true. It is best for adolescents to develop their autonomy in a close and cooperative attachment context with parents (Allen et al., 2003; Baltes & Silverberg, 1994).
