This is a wonderful video showing a child who displays a secure attachment strategy.
Note: it might trigger some distress in people because of the crying child, but if you can watch it, you can see the results of the secure attachment between mother and child....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTsewNrHUHU&feature=related
There are some very interesting things to notice in this video, especially the gaze of the child at the stranger, but not completely fearful or distressed; and the almost immediate calming once Mom has returned. Beautiful...
Unfortunately, the majority of clients in therapy were not able to develop secure attachment and continue with difficulties into adulthood.
