“The huge importance of nurturing children has been validated as research into brain development has expanded. What many people know instinctively is now verified by many studies and advances in brain imaging. A new study recently completed at Washington University in St. Louis, Mo., has shown that children who are nurtured have larger hippocampus areas in their brains. Larger hippocampus areas are associated with the ability to handle stress, the ability to form and store memories, the ability to relate memory and emotions, and the mediation of physical stress responses and inflammatory processes.”(more)
