John: Whatcha watching, Liz? Elizabeth: Nothin' much. John: Sounds good to me. I remember when Elizabeth was little... We'd snuggle up together to watch TV. She's so big now - she's a pretty young woman! I'd love to put my arm around her, but... Maybe she'd think it was wrong. Maybe she'd push me away. I don't know what to do! Elizabeth: I wonder why Daddy never hugs me anymore.
I doubt the soon to be 16 year old thinks that way. My 17 year old daughter was/is the same way. When she was little, she was all about the hugs and time together. Hugs are at a premium anymore.
