What does attachment look like and how is it different for teenagers?

I think the important thing to remember is that with each developmental change and stage, we get sort of a revisiting of the attachment themes.

So in working in the adoption field and being an adoptive mom also, it's been very interesting.

I mean, with my son, his story is a tough story and we were his third family.

So it was easy to see why he didn't trust us.

But when you're a biological parent or you adopted but you were in the birthing room and have a wonderful open relationship with the biological parent, then we forget sometimes that there's still fundamental attachment things that all of us have.

We have it as just our animalistic nature.

I wish I could do that
