To the very young children, before the age of 6, the mother is without a shadow of a doubt the most important person on Earth. As the child grows older, the father helps the child become an individual. The mother is there for security, the father for learning autonomy.
As for determining if a daughter or a son is more attached to her mother or father, I think it changes, it is not something frozen. There's also the matter of personalities, in my opinion.
It is true that daughters favor their fathers and sons favor their mothers. It was true back when my ex-wife and I were still married. Even more so now that we are divorced. It has also been shown that daughters will pick a husband that have characteristics of their fathers and sons will pick wives that remind them of their mothers. Look at American football for example. Fathers teach their sons everything about football, but when they are a near-300 pound professional athlete that breaks t
There are so many factors that can influence this issue. Foresight, attitude and routines of each parent can dictate how a child can develop the relationship and attachment with their mother or father. Given the perfect situation and barring any discomfort on the part of a child, it is but natural that the child is paternally attached to both mother and father without any preference.
In Bangali tradition that are happen few.But childes are loved father and mother too.In Muslim tradition,Childs are always stay with mother if divorced the relationship.
honestly i believe both parents but it depends on which one can spend more time coz of the society now days both parents are busy with their work and some are divorced so it varies
It is a human response to look for other traits and securities in the parents by their children. Girls look for strength, and security from their fathers; and sons look for love, and compassion from the mothers..We are an inquisitive living organism looking to understand the other gender and be a part of these...this is all part of the bonding; of human nature!
I believe little girls are attached to their Daddy's when there growing up but they reach a certain age I believe it's their Mother's they need more. As for son's Mommy's are best but when they grow up it's their Dad's they are closer to.
I guess it depends on the parents. I had a much better relationship with my father because we were so much alike. My mother was so completely different that I wonder how we even lived in the same house. The love was there though, and that's what really counts.
closeness between children and parents depending on total interactions between them include the frequency of quality relationships between them, whether it be with his father or his mother, everything they did , it would lead to a tendency to whom he is more attached
