Why didn't Bowlby consider maternal privation in his maternal deprivation hypothesis?
Bowlby's stages of attachment show attachment as an innate process, he believed we are biologically programmed to attach, he therefore didn't believe that children wouldn't/couldn't attach.

Explain what is meant by the term 'deprivation' and 'maternal deprivation'?
Deprivation is having something and then having it taken away, therefore maternal deprivation is having your attachment figure taken away, the attachment is broken or disrupted.
