Lack of cuddles in infancy may affect development of brain

Now you can't say this isn't interesting; how much affection we are shown in infancy alters brain development and the advantage goes to the well-and-demonstrably loved. A good argument for polity that supports relaxed and good parenting of the very young. And for Christians it's no surprise that we really do work better on love and affection. Almost lends support to Catholic thinking about Mary, doesn't it?
