Couple’s anger linked to child hair pulling in study
A San Francisco psychiatrist described a married couple who never showed anger and a daughter who pulled her hair out. Dr Gene Gordon of Washingtons Chil dren's Hospital told the American Orthopsychiatric Assn that the child learned to express anger by hair-pulling because she never saw temper in her parents. The doctor advised the parents to display anger and taught the girl how to throw a tantrum, which reportedly stopped the habit.
