Abstract

Man is a social animal, says Aristotle. We are born, we grow, we form, we develop, we prosper in groups. Being a good, balanced parent is a very important stake, because a family climate lacking love and emotional security will generate a similar perception of social relationships for the child. It will appear as unstable, dangerous, difficult to control, causing the child to show relationship difficulties, to feel unable to cope with an environment he considers hostile and will negatively influence the experience of well-being. Children and adolescents face various challenges in life, especially today. When the family provides support and encouragement, affection and conditions for the development of a secure attachment pattern, children will easily overcome and successfully manage the future organization of psychological, emotional and biological resources. The present research aims to investigate the possible link between the type of attachment acquired in childhood and the experience of well-being in adulthood, essential elements that contribute to improving the quality of life.
