I've been looking at attachment styles again recently. Working as a teacher they help me identify ways children act and react to their peers and me, as their teacher.
More precisely, I want to help steer them in the right direction in terms of relationships later in life. It is often easy to see if a child comes from a difficult home. The challenging part, is changing their perspectives on relationships and their relationship templates. In the limited time I spend with them, it's probably impossible, but we try.
Understanding attachment styles and that they affect our relationships as adults help us too. I can honestly say there is a pattern in ALL of my relationships and I am starting to clearly see what it is (especially in terms of romantic relationships).
Keep up the good work! You definitely have a gift and a passion which will carry you on this path. Psychology, therapy, counselling, whatever it might be, isn't an easy road but those that actively choose it definitely live fulfilled lives! You have gained a follower! Good luck on your journey :)
Thank you for your thoughts. Child's background is very important when you work with them! Especially for teacher. From my experience: teacher calls adoptive parents that their child (in new school) is "rude" and please do something with it.
Noone cares that the child is adopted, after long adoption process ... after being taken from family. School wants kid to be nice. Just nice.
Thank you for you point of you. We need more people like you @rionpistorius :)
