Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Blanca's behavior suggests that she may be neglectful and unresponsive to Joey's needs, which can lead to insecure attachment. In particular, the fact that Blanca responds to Joey's needs in an angry, irritable fashion suggests that she may be dismissive or avoidant of his emotions. Therefore, it's most likely that Joey will develop an insecure avoidant attachment, in which he learns to avoid seeking comfort or support from his mother because he doesn't expect it to be available or helpful.
