What Is Love Bombing And Are You Guility Of It

“Love bombing,” as it’s known, is a manipulative tactic — ultimately, a form of emotional abuse — used by someone to get their way in a relationship. It may seem romantic to excessively shower a partner with loving words and behaviors, but according to therapist Kimberly Panganiban, love bombing is more about gaslighting the other partner than actually connecting. “Love bombing can keep a person disoriented and so wrapped up in the feeling of being loved so deeply that they don’t recognize the ways their partner is steadily gaining more and more control over their life and relationship,” says Saba Lurie, a Los Angeles-based therapist....

When Do Babies Start Talking It Depends On Parents

When Do Babies Start Talking? While every kid is different, most babies say their first words around their 1st birthday.

That information eventually becomes the foundation of their baby talk. So while parents don’t exactly need to teach their baby to talk, they can help their language development along by talking to them....
