A few years ago a musical group called: Camila, was very successful, among the most popular songs there is one titled Abrázame, which is still among my favorites, recently I do not remember, if in any program or newscast I heard that they talked about how important hugs are, I know that for me it is very rich to feel them, so after hearing that the lack of hugs could be the cause of death of a child caused me curiosity, so I investigated and today I share with you the importance of hugs.
The human being is a social being and the lack of socialization or the wrong form of it, brings consequences, so I think we all want to feel loved, appreciated and valued, especially by people who are important to us and if there is something that we all love, however dry and little kinesic we are, are hugs, which for me is the expression of affection par excellence, as it can express much without the use of words, appreciation, comfort, friendship, love, empathy and many others.
I discovered reading that babies come with a programming to survive and part of what they need is to be hugged, who does not like to hold a baby and hug him with tenderness? you would really have to be very hard of heart, not to be touched, even a little, by a baby or a child, no matter how naughty he is, maybe those pranks and misbehavior, are the way to express their lack of affection, I share with you part of what I read, because it is based on studies.

... los bebés llegan al mundo con una programación innata biológica para crear vínculo con la madre y de esta manera poder sobrevivir y conseguir protección.
En relación con esto, se hicieron varios experimentos en los que se observaba a niños huérfanos, privados del apego y del contacto con la figura materna y se comprobó que estos niños sufrían después consecuencias negativas y desagradables que impedían su desarrollo emocional y social de manera satisfactoria.
... babies come into the world with an innate biological programming to bond with the mother in order to survive and get protection.
In relation to this, several experiments were done in which orphaned children, deprived of attachment and contact with the mother figure, were observed and it was found that these children later suffered negative and unpleasant consequences that prevented their emotional and social development in a satisfactory way.
Therefore, hugs are necessary and although I must confess that sometimes I avoid them, to avoid crying, the years and the experience gained with them, have shown me that many times we must accept and recognize not only our virtues and strengths, also those shortcomings and issues to be resolved, precisely to take those first steps that allow us to move forward for personal benefit and believe it or not hugs have benefits here I briefly share some of them.
