During Phase 2 of the Attachment Years, typically from around age 6 months to 12 months, the infant begins to form patterns of behavior in response to the care being received. For example, if the infant is in a caring and stable relationship, the infant may learn that by crying, s/he can get needs of hunger or discomfort met. If, however, the infant is in a situation where needs go unmet, the child may develop patterns of intense fear, anger, or withdrawal, when attempts to get needs met are not recognized.
