Publisher's Synopsis
Focusing on the behavioural aspects of relationships, this insightful volume considers the lasting effects of early-life experience on later-life relationships. It presents a compelling catalogue of specific ways in which a child′s social learning is formed throughout childhood.
Among the diverse topics explored are how parent-child relationships affect one′s feelings of self-worth, the development of attachment styles in infancy, how early mother-child experiences affect one′s later rearing of children and how parents′ relationship ideas affect their relationship with their children.
