Ever wonder how important parents are, or how much the early days and months of a baby’s life matter to his or her future?  An upcoming three-part documentary series, This Emotional Life airs on PBS from January 4-6, 2010 at 8 p.m. The program shows how important it is for parents to bond with their babies from the very first minute of their lives – and throughout their childhoods.  Interested?
