There was a study that was done and it shows that positive relationships during the infant/toddler years with caring adults become the foundation for conscience and it also helps them to do well in school(Perry 2001) . They concluded that children with poor attachment are harder to teach because they feel little pleasure from teacher's worm encouraging words. They do not regret being a disappointment to adults. Children with strong attachment do better in school they are more likely to cooperate, have fewer behavior problems and love learning.
That is why it is very important that you help your infants/toddlers to respond positive praise.
If at home you are yelling to your toddler when she gets to school she expects to be treated that way because you are her mirror to the world.
