#145 - How Responsive Parenting Shapes a Child’s Attachment


Listen Later

Let us hear from you!

Attachment isn’t just about emotions—it’s a survival strategy wired into our DNA. From the moment we’re born, we rely on our caregivers to shape how we connect with the world. But how does this work? And what happens when those connections break down?

In this episode, we discuss: 

  • Why attachment is a survival mechanism, not just a bond.

  • How parents shape their child’s emotional security.

  • The Still Face Experiment—a powerful study on caregiver responsiveness.


Understanding attachment helps us build stronger, healthier relationships—from childhood to adulthood. It's the science of connection.
