During the infancy stage, which lasts roughly from birth to the age of two years, children begin to develop their emotions. During this time, the child learns a lot about their surroundings and the people who live in them. Interactions with parents and observations of parental relationships, who are the first and most prominent individuals in a child's early life, account for much of this learning. Happiness, dissatisfaction, and disgust are among the first sensations that children experience just a few months after birth. Between the ages of two and four years, social emotions arise, followed by the emotion of dread. As a youngster grows older, his or her emotions begin to diverge. So far, it has been established that parents have a substantial impact on their children's emotional development. Parents do far more than supply their children's fundamental survival needs, according to a study, and they have a significant impact on a wide range of health outcomes for their children, including behavioral patterns, physical and mental health outcomes, and emotional development. Over the last few decades, a lot of work and research has gone into figuring out how inter-parental conflict affects a child's capacity to grow, develop, and operate healthily. For example, over two-thirds of all research linked to inter-parental conflict included in one author's meta-analysis were published in the 1990s, illustrating how much interest in this topic has risen in recent years.
