THE ATTACHMENT TO THE ATTACHMENT PHASE

In Dr. Spock’s “Baby and Child Care” book, his famous opening line states, “You know more (about parenting) than you think you do.” Naturally, that is exactly what I needed to read when I couldn’t find a designated chapter on the attachment phase for toddlers. As I poured my second cup of coffee, sat down in silence at my desk and began my research, I was still shaking from pre-school drop off. Perhaps I should have water instead of coffee I uttered under my breath to my anxious self. I then continued on talking out loud … “they’re going to be fine…they won’t even remember they cried at pre-school drop off.” At least that’s what I told myself.
