Secure attachment: Children who can depend on their caregivers show distress when separated and joy when reunited. Although the child may be upset, they feel assured that the caregiver will return. When frightened, securely attached children are comfortable seeking reassurance from caregivers. This is the most common attachment style. 3, record 1, English, - secure%20attachment

[...] un attachement sécurisant ou sain est la base qui [permet au bébé] d'explorer le monde tout en sachant qu'il peut revenir vers un endroit sûr. C'est le premier moyen pour bébé d'apprendre à organiser ses sentiments et ses actions, car il sait qu'il peut compter sur la personne qui lui offre soins et confort. La création d'un lien d'attachement est essentielle pour la santé psychologique à long terme. 3, record 1, French, - attachement%20s%C3%A9curisant
