[quote=Anonymous]I am kind of bothered by some of these responses because I don't feel like you are saying you don't want to be physically affectionate or haven't been with your child. In fact, the opposite. I agree with initiating with hugs or snuggling while reading a book but you don't have to be physically connected all of the time and she can learn to appreciate other forms of affectionate and your needs for personal space and maybe by talking with her she will respect that. Be open and communicate, you are a person with needs, too. I.e. during dinner we are eating and talking together and I love that part of our day, but holding hands makes it difficult for me to enjoy my meal. This doesn't mean you don't love and adore her and enjoy physical affection.[/quote]
