Abstract | The origin of violent behaviour is to be sought in the primary relationships of the individual. From early childhood, the affective relationships that involve the child, in other words those between the parents and with parents, influence a child’s capacity to regulate his or her emotions, expectations of the outside world, and behavior, as well as his or her ideas about interpersonal relationships in general. |
