[quote=Anonymous]Wow, my biggest concern is that your child is going to pick up on the fact that you don't actually want her touching you. Get some therapy? I don't know. Look, I don't think your a bad mom because you are here trying to deal with it. The way to deal with it is to look at why you don't like the touching and why it overwhelms you. Did something happen to you to make you this way? I guess I can't relate - I adore it when my child touches me. But I will say that the constant NEEDING me can get a bit overwhelming... maybe this is just your way of focusing that feeling... by focusing on the touching. Perhaps you should think about whether it's just that you need some time to yourself or what.. the physical touching part is really off putting to me. Can you talk a little more about why physical touch is so draining for you? [/quote]
