Some conditions that prevent or post pone bonding are not spending time with your child or not being around them. When bonding doesn't happen is that the child won't trust the care giver or doesn't respect them.

If a mother has extra things around the house or is sleep deprived it can take away bonding time. Feeding and reacting quickly to the babies needs are good ways to form a positive relationship with your baby. If not the baby may continue to be extra fussy.

I think there are alot of ways that bonding can be hindered for children. I think one of the major ways would be that the children dont have loving parents families that care. Also if a child is brought up in foster care or an unstable environment.
If a child doesnt bond with anyone they might be quiet later in life but also might have issues with relationships with others
I think that one of the things that can prevent a child from bonding with their parents is when either one of the parents have a job so they have to get back to work as soon as possible and leave their child in a daycare. I also think that a child might not bond as closely when they are the first child of a young couple because they might not know always right away what their baby wants to get them to stop crying and like the video said, when you get to the baby faster it tends to form a closer bond with the parents.
I think that when a child and the parents dont make a close bond or maybe even no bond at all the child will grow up with inner problems and maybe even struggle with grades or making friends because they dont have that attachement in their life.

Personalities of the parents and or the kids could prevent bonding.A person that doesn't bond with their parents will not turn out to be very social. They also won't listen to their parents or anything that they say.

Sleep deprivation, postpardom hormones, and added household chores can put a damper on bonding with children. If a child fails to bond with a parent/caregiver, then they won't respond to the parents/caregivers in a positive way.

some conditions that may postpone or prevent bonding are if the baby is premature and in the incubator you aren't able to hold the baby right away. A child who fails to bond with parent/ caregiver may become depressed are separated from their parents/caregivers. They may get into trouble a lot at school or out in society.

When you are to busy to hang out with your family or when your texting during dinner instead of actually listening to what everyone is saying and how their day went prevents bonding. When a child who fails to bond with their parents they might make some wrong choices.
-Gillian
I think that maybe a mother working to at a job that requires certain hours may prevent bonding. For example if someone was a single mother and had multiple children it would be hard to pay attention to the baby maybe as much as it needs. The child may develop social problems in the future, they may not like to share with other children. They may also keep to themselves and often form imaginary friends.

If your depressed it can prevent bonding with your new born.If you don't bond the baby could be fussy.

A child being placed in an orphanage would be a bad condition because that child would get no personal bonding time. Adopting a baby may cut out some bonding time also. A baby being taken away from their caregivers immediately because of medical conditions could disrupt the bonding time. When the child grows up they may not feel as loved.
-Courtney
Some things that can prevent bonding would be if there were other children in the family they will also need attention so that gives less time for bonding.
Another thing that can prevent bonding is if the baby is sick and has to be in the hospital alot for a period of time can prevent the child and mother to bond.
I think its very important to bond with the child right away so the baby can get to know you and be comfortable and know who you are. I think it will help make the relationship more stronger if the baby and mother bond alot.

Work, sleep deprivation, post-pardum depression, recovery, and older siblings can all postpone or prevent bonding. If a baby doesn't have a good bonding period with it's parent/caregiver it may have severe trust issues, not have confidence in themselves, they wouldn't have a good relationship with their parent/caregiver either.
When a child is born premature and has to spend the first few weeks or even months of his or her life in an incubator bonding isn't a easy. Though in most cases the parents can massage their child with a few fingers or let the child hold their finger there is still limited contact which doesn't help bonding. somehing else that can prevent bonding would being if both parents go back to work right away, the first few months with a newborn are critical and work limits that precious time.
Bonding may be postponed if the baby is sick and cannot be held right away by the parents, it can also me postoponed if the parents are undecided if they want to keep the baby or not.
A child that doesn't bond may not feel like they are loved as much as a child that has bonded alot with there caregiver.

Some things that would postpone or prevent bonding would be if the parents were not at home with the kids very much or if they only had one parent. If the child fails to bond with their parent, they might be socially challenged or feel like they are not loved.
Sara D.
Postpartum depression, anxiousness, or feeling stressed and overwhelmed could possibly prevent bonding with the child.
Reactive attachment disorder could happen to the child if they don't bond with the parents very good.
-Brittany A.
Lack of sleep, hormone changes, and depression can prevent bonding. Failure to bond may make a baby withdrawn, they may not eat and will not gain weight, they eventually don't want to be touched or held.
Alissa A.
One main condition that postpones or prevents bonding is work. If a child does not bond with his/her parent/caregiver then if they are older they could hang out with the wrong people or something like that.
