John Bowlby

Hello Everyone!

Today I´m going to talk about one of the most important twentieth century psychologist: he is John Bowlby.

John Bowlby dedicated the most part of his life to work with orphan kids living in institutions after the Second World War. A high point of Bowlby’s career was the theory about the importance of relationship between a child and their mother in the human development.

He said that the children’s needs from the very first day the love of the mother, or at least one principal person who cares of it. Not only care about the basical needs, also he studied a lot about the love needs baby’s and the importance to the future as human beings, and healthy teenagers.

I think John Bowlby s ´theory is very important because he make a huge contribution to mental health child.

Also, after John Bowlby´s discovery’s came a lot of psychologists who made different investigations about John Bowlby´s  theory called “Attachment Theory”

I just hope I can have the opportunity to know more about this great child psychologist because I am very interest in than field.
