Did You Hug Your Child Today

I fear the sound of the alarm. It was always hugs and kisses from my son (now 13) who wake me up in the morning. Sometimes I get up anther middle of the night to make sure that the bedroom door is unlocked, so I do not miss my morning feast.

Many mornings I often think what makes my son so loving and affectionate. And most importantly not keep his love for himself, but put it too! Many mornings my eyes mystify when I remember those 13 years when I dingy, put to him. Times when a hug said I could not say with words. Times when all the miss-understandings that can distance us got cleared in the degree of a tight embrace.

Hugs are magical. They work like vitamin pills. You should give one to your child every day to bring a glow to his face that energy his mind and strengthen his self-respect. Yes, all these benefits in one hug! Your child will feel secure when you hug and tell him, 'You're looking really smart. " Your child will believe you when you put your arms around him and say, "I am proud of you. 'And your love will surely touch his heart, if you tightly hug your child and say' I love you '.

And children love to hug. Can not you? Even today, when your mom or dad keeps you tenderly in their arms, do not you smile through tears? So hug magic never fades, it just gets stronger and stronger with time. When chubby young children get kisses and hugs as their daily dose of milk, it is when children grow up parents think may be as perfectly acceptable to skip hugs from routine. And, as concerns about discipline, education,

grooming take over. I do not deny that all this also comes out of love for the child, but why should we stop expressing our love for him? Parents who find themselves thrust into a cold war with their child, where communication seems to be decreasing every day should not begin rejuvenating their relationship with a long speech, but only with a warm hug. This heart to heart the non-verbal form of communication always works and never misunderstood.

My good friend has two lovely twins. When her daughter Saumaya bagged a trophy, she made her sit on his lap and showered hugs and kisses, tell her

how much she is happy for her. Just then her sister from the second room with the trophy in his hand saying her school's name was misspelled on the trophy. It was then she realized that she had been hugging Sania and not Saumaya. Sheep giggling Sania kissed her mother and ran away. It daymy friend realized she would be hugging her daughters more often, even when there is no reason. For no reason can be greater than love.
