An interesting observation based on studies that show that touch is important regardless of age but especially in early childhood, especially infants. In our society today where the simple act of taking a child in her arms is sometimes considered evil (especially the USA), the feel is as necessary as eating or drinking. Look when you lose a loved one or in a heavy medical treatment, take the hand or be in the arms of a loved one can be more soothing and the slightest pain, for a moment.
