It seems clear there is an observed phenomenon of attachment, with several different basic possible values, and important consequences for later living. Your remarks seem to focus on the question of what causes the observed variation, and you point out there are various factors, including the temperament of both the infant and the parent, and the larger environment, that are important for attachment. I am thinking that is correct, but I find it hard to believe that the parenting skills the parent learned from his or her parent are not usually also quite important. That matters because it implies that parents ought to be trained in attachment skills, and that when there is a problem with attachment there is a good chance training could help. Would you agree?
