This attachment theory was developed by psychologists John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth more than 50 years ago and their findings still hold up today. Simplistically the theory shows that how your parents or caregivers loved you in your first 5 years played a critical role in your emotional development and continues to effect the way you relate to others on a personal level. Mary Ainsworth the sensitivity hypothesis which basically says the more responsive your mom was to you as an infant, the more secure you’ll be in your future relationships.
