Hugs! More hugs, please!

This just brought a smile to my face (please ignore the weird ads on the page)

Edited to comment that I went back to the page and the ads is now for Altoids. If the "Girls of Maxim" ads appear, the above comment still applies. :cool:

Thank you for posting!

Neat article. I wish I had it read it before I took the online three week psych course recently. I could have written my final paper on this one!

Incidently, one of my favorite clinical rotations was at the State School. I loved working with the mentally/physically challenged and Downs people. They really did brighten my day.

I have always stopped by the Onion, but now I'll make it more of a habit.

Thanks Sadie...

Something new for WADA to ban! What about butt slaps - performance enhancing or not?

Thanks for sharing a great story! One of the perks of teaching special ed is all the hugs we get. You leave the room for a few minutes to go to the office, and when you come back, some kids will hug you like you've been gone for days! I've had administrators who've told me they come by the classroom just to get those guaranteed hugs. There's nothing like unconditional love!
