Question

1. The local PTA chapter has asked you to talk to its parents and teachers about working with young children. They have specifically asked you to address the idea of attachment-what it is, the research supporting a notion of attachment, the different forms of attachment, and how to help a child develop secure attachment-and the different types of temperament, including how to deal effectively with children according to their temperamental styles. What will you tell these parents and teachers? Give examples they can relate to and use the information out of your book. Be as specific as possible.

What types of characteristics might children develop from the various types of parenting styles (e.g. children who have permissive parents might have what characteristics? Authoritative parents? Authoritarian parents?).
