Connectedness in Childhood Determines Your Relationships in Adulthood

Have you ever wondered why so many people have trouble in relationships? Much of who we become is determined by what we experience in the earliest years of our childhood. Research has determined time and again that the way we connect with people as a child shapes our responses to relationships as an adult.

Here's a video that explains it simply:

This doesn't mean you can't retrain yourself as an adult. But if you don't recognize what is the problem you have little chance of resolving it. You may want to find support for change with a therapist or a growth group. But as long as you keep the same thoughts, feelings, and beliefs you will have problems.

If you are a parent, recognize how you connect with your children. Help them to feel secure in the world. Help them feel safe to explore the world.
