Is it easy to bond with your child?
Bonding with your child is a process, not something that takes place within minutes and not something that has to be limited to happening within a certain time period after birth.Truly knowing your child makes parenting easier at all ages. The ability to read and respond to our baby’s cries is not easy, but with practice it’s a skill that can carry over into their childhood and teenage years.Bonding with a child is the foundation for their concept of a loving relationship. When a parent is consistently emotionally available, a child learns trust and connection with another human being, which leads to positive self esteem and a sense of responsibility.For many parents, bonding is a byproduct of everyday care giving. You may not even know it's happening until you observe your baby's first smile and suddenly realize that you're filled with love and joy.
