Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 How many of you were hugged by nada/fada a young child? My grandmother gave good hugs. No memories of hugs from my fada. My nada hugged me only once that I can remember. I was in the kitchen with her — she pulled me onto her lap, hugged me, and started stroking the skin on my hand saying how soft it was. I remember pulling away, because her sudden show of affection felt so weird. My sister had a similar one-time childhood hugging event with our nada. That lack of affection seems so sad. Hugs are so important. Likewise, I never heard them say " I love you. " Not until I was an adult & my sister managed to train them to say it mechanically...which was so much worse!
