Ainsworth theorized that there are three main attachment styles, each one relates to the attachment a child has with their parent or caregiver. There is secure attachment which is a healthy and positive attachment/bond between child and parent/caregiver, insecure avoidant and insecure ambivalent/resistant. The last two are less positive and can have negative implications in the nature of the relationship between the child and caregiver as the child matures.
Lacey is likely to suggest that conformity and obedience in
which she reviewed from the literature is not necessarily bad and by that a
person or an individual is considered to be important for the formation of an
orderly society.
