Due to the implications that early childhood behavioral difficulties and development have on later adulthood success (Fronstin, Greenberg, & Robins, 2005), it is important that attention is given to the issues surrounding familial attachment and caregiver interactions. In order to develop appropriate theories and treatment specific to this subject, research must continue to focus around the caregiver/child relationship, the variables that affect the level of attachment, and the variables that influence that attachment.en-USPerspectives on Social WorkStephen N.
