Quote from page 53 Early Years Educator for the work-based learner Penny Tassoni 2014

Psychological perspectives
Most psychologists believe children's well-being comes principally from their relationship with adults in the earliest years of their life. These relationships are known as attachments. From feeling loved and nurtured by their parents and also those who play a significant role in their lives, they can go onto develop other relationships as well as manage the more difficult challenges that life brings. Strong and positive relationships with adults also seem to play a part in developing children's self esteem and resilience.

The book recommends greater research into how these relationships help guide, influence and support children in managing their feelings and behaviour, friendships, morality, self-awareness and self-concept, confidence and self-esteem, personality, and the factors that affect children's personal, social and emotional development: openness/intellect, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticism


This thread links to resources about attachment theory - John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth.
