Really? I find it sad. Stuff like this just reinforces the decline of how we interact with each other and our obsession with being 'safe'.
**If you don't want someone to touch your baby, just ask nicely**
There are so many instances when a touch is so sweet- so meaningful. An older person taking joy in few moments saying hello to a baby, older children acknowledging a being smaller and a bit more vulnerable than them- thus learning to take care.
This is so typically western (& yes, I am western). We are hell bent on isolating ourselves to death!
And of course I worry about germs and illness being passed on to my child! I just simply *communicate verbally*
:)
