Sounds like a good idea. Lets have one!
As long as I cuddle with the opposite sex!I really do agree with it building emotional strength
My Mom was always the cuddling type. Even my Dad. They were always showing affection and closeness for each other and us kids. I got a lot of cuddling when I was a child. But my wife is not the "cuddling" type. I really crave just being held, having my back scratched. ect. I can honestly say that touching is as important as sex. Is this normal for a man?
Now I'm the same with my kids. My 7 yr. old daughter loves hugging me holding my hand, falling asleep on my lap. My 10 yr. old boy has his independent times but then out of the blue he is full of hugs which I return.
My 19 yr. old spent a lot of time with his Mom (my first wife). He complains that she is too affraid of showing physical unaffection. She won't even scratch his back. He comes over to my house and asks me to scratch his back and I do. Out in pulic I feel like resting my arm on his shoulder, not like a hug, more like pals. I find it breaks the ice, makes us losen up and talk more. But unfortunately we get occaisional stares and whispers. some people think we're a gay couple if they don't see the Father/son resmblance. Which is sad.
Other countries have different standards for physical touch. when I was in China, all of the single young women/girls walked down the street holding hands. It was a beautiful thing to see. such inocence!
Well I'm through flapping my jaws or (keyboard.)
