Why it's important to bond with your baby
Bonding with your baby - a new report says four in ten of all children are not forming the right attachments with their parents. Plus why men can feel the beat but can't dance!
Bonding with your baby. A new report says 4 in ten of all children are not forming the right attachments with their parents which means these children are more at risk of doing less well at school and are less likely to be successful in life.
The biggest study ever done into the psychology of music has found women have a lower beat perception than men. So if men can feel the beat more, why are they so reluctant on the dance floor and why women are more likely to be attracted to a good dancer?
We hear from Dr Julie Gottlieb about the feminine side of shuttle diplomacy by remembering the visit of Gertrud Scholtz-Klink,the leader of the National Socialist Women's League, to London 75 years ago in the run up to war. Hitler said Gertrud was his idea of the 'perfect woman.' We discuss why women have been left out of the appeasement story.
And we speak to the man who has made a programme for the 成人快手's World Service documenting the many social and cultural reasons why gender inequality exists in countries where the law and education treats both sexes equally. Ros Atkins spoke to teenage girls in London, Lesotho, Jordan and Iceland about their experiences.

Why it's important to bond with your baby
As Philip Larkin said聽'They 鈥榤ess鈥 聽you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do.鈥 A new report from , an organisation that aims to improve social mobility through education, says that four of every ten children are not getting the right parenting to help them succeed in life.聽 They say that not enough babies are forming the right kind of attachment to their parents and they are calling for more support for parents both before and after birth.聽 Jenni speaks to Sophie Moullin, one of the authors of the report, and Judy Williams, a child and adolescent psychotherapist.
Dad dancing
The largest ever study in music psychology conducted at Goldsmith鈥檚 University in London has 聽revealed that more men than women recognise the beat 聽accurately.聽 The findings came as a genuine surprise to the research team behind the project .聽 A popularly held 聽聽stereotype聽 of men enjoying themselves 聽down the local disco is聽聽 鈥榙ad dancing鈥 鈥 it鈥檚 the comic 聽label given to middle aged men whose聽 partners might well 聽prefer they left聽 聽their moves to the groove 聽firmly back at home. 聽Yet, in the light of the new research, could it be many men聽 are capable of being better dancers than they dare think and if so, what鈥檚 holding them back ?

Gottlieb, Senior Lecturer in Modern History at the University of Sheffield explains the significance of Gertrud Scholtz-Klink鈥檚 visit to Britain so soon before the outbreak of World War Two.
