Early Development, Parenthood, & Attachment
In our team, we examine how the current parenting and family environment reflects in child development. We are interested in the ideas and emotions related to modern parenting, how children are brought up, how young families are organized, whether and when mothers return to work after giving birth. We relate these aspects to child-parent relationships and to child development. We also research women’s ideas of motherhood, what it means to be a good parent and the parenting trends they follow.
