Article: The Science of Attachment Parenting

I enjoyed this research based article on benefits of attachment parenting. They don't go overboard and making sweeping declarations, just reporting research results.


I like the reference to mind-minded parenting:
"Mind-minded" parents treat their children--no matter how young-- as individuals with minds, feelings, thoughts, and beliefs of their own. 
Psychologist Elizabeth Meins and her colleagues have shown that mind-minded parenting is linked with with the development of stronger empathy and perspective-taking skills in children.
