    A sense of secure attachment to my parents when they would drop me off, and I would be visually upset, but when they return I was happy again.
    A sense of insecure attachment later on when I became more used to the pre-school, I was more eager to explore my suroundings rather than worry about my parents being there.

    When I would overstep the initiatives my parents would give me such as being allowed to make up my own games and plan activities with others, I would be punished.
