In so doing he indicates a change in the foundation of the debate about fatherhood. The myth of a single essential attachment between mother and child emerged as Bowlby&#8217;s insights combined with the social norms of the time, leaving the father-child relationship as icing on the cake, increasingly appreciated but always secondary. Understanding of multiple attachment is not new, but a person of Sir Michael Rutter&#8217;s reputation talking about it is. The myth of the single essential attachment remains deeply embedded in our culture and serves many purposes, but things are changing. Multiple attachment is a hallmark of the human race.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <img src="http://api.tweetmeme.com/imagebutton.gif?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.duncanfisher.com%2Findex.php%2F2012%2F02%2F22%2Fthe-foundations-of-the-debate-about-fatherhood-are-changing%2F&amp;style=normal&amp;b=2" alt="" /> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/fatherhoodworld/~4/ch0_cRc6lqA" height="1" width="1"/> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:30:00 +0000 http://fatherhoodworld.com/items/view/14663 http://fatherhoodworld.com/items/view/14663 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fatherhoodworld/~3/SCI1z15geZE/14666 <div><a href="http://www.ukprogressive.co.uk/veterans-the-war-after-the-war/article17534.html">Original article</a> <p>...</p> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/fatherhoodworld/~4/SCI1z15geZE" height="1" width="1"/> Sun, 19 Feb 2012 16:59:00 +0000 http://fatherhoodworld.com/items/view/14666 http://fatherhoodworld.com/items/view/14666 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/fatherhoodworld/~3/onnopp9wqpw/14660 <div><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2012/feb/18/britain-learn-denmark-childcare-model?newsfeed=true">Original article</a> <p>The GuardianWhat Britain could learn from Denmark&#39;s childcare modelThe GuardianChristian, 33, who is building a career as a freelance scriptwriter, said: &quot;We get to spend a lot of time with Martha.
