10 Sweet Parenting Behaviors That Are Hurting Your Baby!

10. Tickling children

Adults enjoy baby giggles and laughter, that’s why they always have the same idea: tickling them, just because it’s the easiest way to make kids laugh.

However, according to research, tickling is only a false appearance of joyful laughter since it doesn’t cause the same sensation of happiness as a funny joke. Moreover, tickling children will make them laugh uncontrollably, meaning it’s just a reflex and not a sign of joy.

People of all ages may laugh when tickled, but the problem with children is that they’d laugh even if they really don’t like being tickled. So, in any case, tickling can be regarded as a toxic behavior, especially when it comes to little kids.
