As parents, the one thing we want most from our children is to be loved, and to love them the best we can<\/a>. In fact, one of the most important parts of raising a child is getting them to understand that we love them no matter what and that we are the person they need to turn to in times of hardship and crisis.<\/p>

Unfortunately, sometimes, simply saying \u201cI love you\u201d, or catching them when they fall (literally and figuratively) isn\u2019t enough for your child to understand that you are, and will always be, their biggest cheerleader in life.<\/p>

What is the 'ideal' attachment style?<\/strong><\/span> <\/h3>

Ideally, your child should have the \u201csecure attachment\u201d style,<\/strong> a style where a child feels comfortable with expressing their most automatic feelings, whether it be distress or happiness. \u00a0Everything else<\/a>, including ambivalent, avoidant, and disorganized attachment styles, fall under the \u201cinsecure attachment\u201d category. <\/p>

These attachment styles are so important to your child\u2019s growth that is has been proved that children who showed signs of secure attachment with their mothers are more likely to succeed in their platonic and romantic relationships<\/a> as they grow older, and are even believed to be better at socializing!<\/p>

What is broken can be fixed<\/strong><\/span> <\/h3>

But even if you do spot some familiar signs, do not fret. Professionals believe that attachment styles are malleable and can be fixed over time. Additionally, attachment styles are also highly dependent on your child\u2019s innate personality <\/a>- so chances are, your child just needs to learn to get out his or her shell. <\/p>

Here are five signs your child has an avoidant attachment style, and specific ways you can make your relationship with your child an even more fulfilling one!<\/p>
