Discussion

How do these articles and video affect our understanding of attachment and our views regarding care-giving customs cross-culturally? Do these discussions on multiple care-giving and cooperative breeding alter your perception of care-giving practices in the US? How can this perspective offer insight into debates about daycare in this country?
