Description

Did you know the way you touch your child profoundly affects their emotional health? Dr. Roger Smith explains that touch is one of the most powerful ways to fill a child's emotional tank, but warns that touch used only for anger or discipline can become powerfully negative. He shares a study that ranks different types of touch, revealing that a gentle hand on the head or face is often perceived as the most genuine sign of care and concern. Learn how to use deliberate, positive touch—from holding hands to a comforting head scratch—to continually express your sincere love for your children at every age.
