Answer:

secure attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

Secure attachment is a term that refers to a sense of attachment and security that children feel close to the caregivers. Children feel this security and affection because when they show their dissatisfaction about something, they are protected by their caregivers. This phase has a high degree of well-being in children, so secure attachment is associated with a lower level of internalized symptoms, anxiety and depression in children.
