Why doesn’t my child show much affection?

We started the conversation by acknowledging that some adults don’t necessarily show much affection even though they are very caring people and children are the same. 

We spoke about: 

• How there is nothing better than a lovely cuddle from a child and it can feel difficult when a child doesn’t necessarily want this from us.  
• The other ways that children show affection to us. 
• The importance of never expecting children to give hugs or show physical affection 
• 5 Love Languages – how physical touch isn’t always the most important to fulfil children’s affection.  
• Quality time and the importance of this to children.  
• Being the ‘preferred parent’
