Greetings and Happy Mother's Day!  

A new study shows the enduring effects of positive mother-child interactions:

From the ScienceDaily news release:  “Interactions between a mother and her child have been linked to cognitive outcomes in childhood, but little work has looked at farther-reaching effects. In a new study that examined data from the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study, more positive mother-child interactions during the first 16 years of life predicted higher education in adulthood, which predicted less decline in episodic memory, or the memory of autobiographical events.”
