Although it is more unusual, secure attachment relationships may become insecure if the family's life circumstances deteriorate as a result of job loss, illness, death, or divorce. In the photo, a girl's face reflects the pain experienced by children whose parents divorce. As her world turns upside down, her secure attachments to her parents may well be undermined. In one study, researchers found that when the quality of mother-child communication declined and hostility and conflict or exposure to a traumatic family event such as death of the child's grandparent increased, preschool children shifted from secure to insecure attachments (Moss et al., 2005). In short, attachment relationships appear responsive to changes in parents' behavior and circumstances (Thompson, 2016; Waters et al., 2000).One special, and fortunately rare case of attachment disruption is the death of a primary caregiver or another close loved one during childhood. Importantly, only a small percentage of children in the United States (about 5 percent) experience the loss of a parent during childhood and, when this occurs, it is much more likely to be a death of a father than a mother. Nonetheless, Bowlby was keenly interested in the loss of attachment figures, both during childhood and adulthood, and in fact devoted one of his three major volumes on attachment theory to this and related topics (Bowlby, 1980).
