Secure attachment with a primary caregiver is critical if children are to learn self-control. "The primary function of parents can be thought of as helping children modulate their arousal by attuned and well-timed provision of playing, feeding, comforting, touching, looking, cleaning and resting - in short, by teaching them skills that will gradually help them modulate their own arousal" (van der Kolk 1996, p. 185).

Regulation of emotion and behavior is a crucial ingredient in healthy early childhood development; a process that caregivers and babies accomplish together. This mutual regulatory process breaks down under conditions of anxious attachment. Depressed, substance abusing, or otherwise neglectful or abusive caregivers are not attuned to their infant's emotions and needs, leaving the baby without any necessary external regulatory support (Robinson & Glaves 1996).
