Section CLIX-703 - Early Relationships with Adults and Peers
A. The social and emotional development of young children is strengthened when they feel that the adults in their lives care about them and they develop close relationships (often called "secure attachments") with their parents, teachers, and other adults who care for them. Positive relationships encourage children to care about other people and seek to understand the thoughts and feelings of others. Research has found that children whom have secure, trusting relationships with their caregivers get along better with their peers and have an easier time adjusting to the demands of formal schooling. Adults can help children develop these types of positive relationships by consistently responding when children, especially babies, need something or they are upset, and by being warm and loving when caring for children.
