Renewing Infant Attachment Bond Following Military Deployment
Renewing Infant Attachment Bond Following Military Deployment
Abstract
With the length of deployment averaging 12 months, this process may be confusing for children of military members, especially those of young ages. Even when close parent-child bonds exist prior to deployment, extended absences may negatively impact this bond. Therefore, military members and their families must be patient in the renewal of attachment bonds following the long separation during a military deployment.
