Consider what you’ve just read about how infants develop, answer the following:
- Explain how the temperament of a child might impact the attachment formed with a caregiver. Specifically, think about how might the parent-child attachment formed differ for a child who is easy going compared to a child who is fussy?
- Explain how the temperament of a child may impact their ability to achieve the first “crisis” (i.e., trust vs. mistrust) of Erickson’s Psychosocial Developmental Model
