Another issue is the role of inherited [[genetic]] factors in shaping attachments: for example one type of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymorphism_(biology)#Genetic_polymorphism polymorphism] of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DRD2 DRD2] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_receptor dopamine receptor] gene has been linked to anxious attachment and another in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT2A_receptor 5-HT2A] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serotonin_receptor serotonin receptor] gene with avoidant attachment. This suggests that the [[influence]] of [[maternal]] care on attachment [[security]] is not the same for all [[children]]. One theoretical basis for this is that it makes biological sense for children to vary in their susceptibility to rearing influence.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attachment_theory]
