Belsky, J. (2001). Emanuel Miller Lecture Developmental Risks (Still) Associated with Early Child Care. J. Child Psycho). Psychiat. Vol. 42, No. 7, pp. 845-859. ("Evidence indicating that early, extensive, and continuous nonmaternal care is associated with less harmonious parent-child relations and elevated levels of aggression and noncompliance suggests that concerns raised about early and extensive child care 15 years ago remain valid and that alternative explanations of Belsky's originally controversial conclusion do not account for seemingly adverse effects of routine nonmaternal care that continue to be reported in the literature... No longer is it tenable for developmental scholars and child-care advocates to deride the notion that early and extensive nonmaternal care of the kind available in most communities poses risks for young children and perhaps the larger society as well. Importantly, even some one-time critics of this proposition have come to acknowledge that there is something about lots of time in nonmaternal care beginning in the first year of life that poses risks for children that may not be entirely attributable to the quality of care they receive.")

("In the beginning of the eighties, Sagi, Lamb and others used the Strange Situation to study the relationships of 85 communally sleeping kibbutz infants with their parents and caregivers. They also examined the relationships with their mothers of 36 Israeli infants attending city day-care facilities. They found that only 59% of kibbutz infants were securely attached to their mothers, äs compared with 75% of Israeli day-care infants, and with 65%-70% found in most studies. Among children with insecure attachments in both Israeli samples, anxious-ambivalent relationships were overrepresented.")

child custody evaluations and therapeutic jurisprudence: Elizabeth Loftus and memory research"I've been in this business (of academia) for nearly a quarter century now and nothing depresses me more than the rampant, seemingly inveterate mis-characterization that lies at the core of nearly every academic debate. We are not incapable of arguing about intellectual substance and empirical reality, but we seem to prefer misunderstanding as a subject for invective. The root of this lamentable behavior can only lie in careless habits of reading and thinking (or, worse, in our willingness to argue without reading at all)."

LIZNOTE: The Liz Library expressly disclaims endorsement of any purported attachment, reunification or anti-"parental alienation" "therapies", quackeries claiming the ability artificially to create or enhance attachment of children to adults to whom they are not otherwise attached, and/or to "fix" children with attachment disorders (not infrequently caused in the first place by third party interference with and failure to support the birth mother and child relationship, foster care, adoption, inappropriate child custody decisions, and/or abuse of the child's mother creating maternal depression or dysfunction.).
