Hi all

Does anyone have a link to an article that is really parent friendly on attachment?

pretty please!! :)

there have been a couple in nursery world magazine - have you looked on their website? :D

I don't have a link to any websites but Linda Pound's books on theories are very good and understandable to read:)

was going to suggest nursery world archives like Sarah :) they do the 'parents guide to..... ' series they are fab

Oh yes I forgot about nursery world - thanks :thumbsup:

Unfortunately most of the nursery world articles are subscriber only. :(

polly i subscribe to NW so I can check the archive if you like. let me know.x

I have got some stuff Polly2 - need to find it - when I do will send to you (need to anyway - as delivering a course on attachments in April.

Do you hve a particular aged child in mind who might be displaying signs of attachment issues - or is it just general information that you want?

Penny :)

Reason I wanted something parent friendly is I have a new parent asking if its normal for her previously chilled out 12 month old to get hysterical when passed to strangers. I have been explaining to her about normal attachment behaviour and reassuring her but she is having problems with her partner who is not 'getting' it :rolleyes:
She asked me if I had any information I could print off that she could share with him. Ideally I would like to chat to him but I never see him - I think he lives away.

I also thought it might be useful to include some information in my parent pack. I will probably eventually write something myself but any info you have Penny would be very helpful. I will pm you.

Thanks xx
