 Attachment Across Cultures - About the Project
Attachment is a deep and lasting connection that develops between a child and specific caregiver (mother, family member, or community member) in the early years of life, particularly between the ages of 0 and 5 years.
Attachment practices are those practices that caregivers use to develop a deep and lasting connection with their child by responding to their children's attachment behaviours.
Insecure attachment occurs when caregivers are not available, are not in tune with the needs of their child, are not affectionate, are unable to demonstrate pleasure in their interaction with their children, or are unable to comfort their stressed children.

 Fonagy:Transgenerational Consistencies of Attachment: A New Theory   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Attachment theorists have assumed that securely attached adults are more sensitive to their children’s needs thus fostering an expectation in the infant that dysregulation will be rapidly and effectively met (Belsky, Rosenberger, and Crnic, 1995; De Wolff and van IJzendoorn, 1997).
Some may be particularly alert to the earliest indications of intentionality, others may need stronger indications before perceiving the child’s mental state and modifying their behavior accordingly.Others, as we described in the context of early infancy, may systematically misperceive the child’s states of mind, with resulting deformation of the child’s sense of himself.
Secure attachment and reflective function are, I believe, overlapping constructs and the vulnerability associated with insecure attachment lies primarily in the child’s diffidence in conceiving of the world in terms of psychic rather than physical reality.
