The proximal attachment (origin) of the muscle is the tibia. The distal attachment (insertion) of the muscle is the medial cuneiform bone of the ankle and also the first metatarsal. The innervation of the muscle is the deep peroneal branch of the fibular nerve.

They included 22 male students and 106 female students. Keeping in mind this over representation of women and the fact that the researchers didn’t use a validated instrument for measuring sexting, attachment anxiety predicted positive attitudes towards the use of sexting. Those with attachment anxiety found sexting normal and enhancing the romantic relationship. Attachment anxiety also predicted sending texts that solicit sexual activity for those individuals in relationships. In short Sexting as the new expression of attachment anxiety.

If you do, don’t fear — you’re amongst good company. Our partner LiveScience has the story by examining the data that drives our need to keep these reminders from our childhood. We believe these objects hold something of greater value to us than just their outward appearance or physical properties. Scientists call this belief “essentialism.” Essentialism is why we don’t feel the same about replacing a lost object, whether it be our wedding ring, a toy from our childhood, or our cherished iPhone. The new object loses that emotional attachment the original had. That’s one of the reasons some of us hang on to those childhood toys or objects — they hold an emotiona...

Probably all of us have asked our self from time to time if our thoughts, feelings, or behavior at any single moment is "normal". Actually, there are different answers for each one of these. Normal behavior is, like it or not, defined by our legal, community (family, neighborhood, social group) and religious institutions. The law is enforced by our local police, and sanctioned by our courts. Religious values might be said to be collectively defined by our church going population and it's leadership. If we are observed behaving outside of legal boundaries, we may find ourselves in a court room facing a judge. If we stretch our community or religious values, we might be ostracized, and separated from t...

She didn’t want to give it up, and I told my older daughter that I would not intervene because the doll was not being hurt and there was no reason not to let her sister play with it. My older daughter knew she couldn’t grab the doll out of her sister’s hands, so she had to get creative. She applied the attachment parenting techniques that I have used in the past! She asked enthusiastically, “Do you want to come with me and put dolly to bed?” My toddler nodded and started following her sister upstairs. Halfway up the stairs on the landing, they had to make a stop. What do you do before you put a baby to bed? You nurse her, of course! My 19-month-old nursing the dolly It was lovely to s...

Is attachment theory also useful in medical education, does it explain the poor performance by some doctors? After all doctors are required to engage attachment relationships with their patients. It’s part of their job. In professional health care the relationship as caregiver is part of the working relationship. This interesting question whether attachment theory is useful in medical education and poor performing doctors when under stress is discussed in a recent article and commentaries in Medical Education.

In Yes Annika, There is a Santa Claus, another attachment parenting proponent comes to the conclusion that she will perpetuate the Santa “fantasy” with her daughter. She says: I’ve heard parents debate this topic, reasons that affect how new parents handle Santa almost always involve the way their parents handled it. It seems that the only angry memories involve parents who did not promote the Santa story. I have yet to hear any adult say, “Yeah, my parents LIED to me. Boy was I pissed when I found out there was no Santa Claus.” Well, count me as one of the people who felt lied to and was angry about it (it’s okay...

I love breastfeeding. I wouldn’t write a blog about breastfeeding if I didn’t think it was a wonderful thing that I hope more people will learn to appreciate too. I also love attachment parenting and keeping my kids close and securely connected with me. I never felt that breastfeeding and attachment parenting kept me tied down at home or prevented me from doing anything I wanted to do — I just took my nursling along with me! Having said that, I had reached a point where I needed some extended time to myself — some time when I was not in charge of one or more of my three children. The problem was that I do not enjoy leaving a child who will surely cry for me if I am not there. I don’t find that relaxing! My first ...

How a couple chooses to communicate — especially during a conflict — affects all sorts of things in the relationship: stress, relationship health, intimacy, even each person’s health. As Gouin et al. (2009) note in a summary of our existing research on this issue: Individuals reporting lower marital satisfaction experienced more non-specific physical illness symptoms over a 4-year period than individuals with higher marital satisfaction. Among healthy women, lower marital satisfaction was also associated with a more rapid progression of carotid atherosclerosis. Furthermore, women who were initially dissatisfied in their marital relationship were more likely to develop metabolic syn...

Attachment Parenting International explains: “Attached at the Heart Through the Years” is the theme for AP Month 2009 and a statement that healthy, secure attachments between parents and children is a dynamic process that extends throughout childhood and does not end with baby bonding. During AP Month, parents are challenged to re-examine their daily activities and traditions and learn new ways to grow with each other and remain close and supportive. I found breastfeeding to be a natural and easy way to bond with my children and to stay close to them through toddlerhood. Remaining close and attached was practically effor...

We now have a better understanding of how stress can impact a relationship, and how it can neutralize a person’s positive relationship abilities or relationship attachment style. The take-away for couples is simple — each individual needs to learn to deal with stress in positive ways outside of the relationship (through activities to minimize the buildup of stress in the first place, regular exercise, and other stress-relief activities).

This month participants share stories related to breastfeeding (see entries at the end of this post). My story represents the end of the story — how it turns out when a mother practices extended breastfeeding. When I had my first daughter, I fumbled my way around until I found my parenting style. It happened naturally. I couldn’t stand to hear my baby cry; what mother can? So I breastfed her on cue, wore her in a sling, and co-slept with her in my bed. Those things worked for me, my husband, and my baby. They continued to work for us, and we identified ourselves more and more with an “attachment parenting” philosophy.
