Hi everyone! In this important episode, we discuss attachment issues that can contribute to sibling estrangement. A child's interactions with his/her caregiver will determine social and relationship interactions in the future, according to studies. We explore various insecure attachment styles (anxious, avoidant, disorganized) and how they serve as a blueprint for an individual's future relationships. Over the course of a life, an individual can change his/her attachment style. We explore the importance of emotionally corrective experiences -- positive, warm, healthy relationships within or outside the family -- that alter an individual's attachment style and, ultimately, all of his/her relationships.
