I certainly believe that this may be true. I remember hearing a story of a little girl that was thrown out of the house by her parents and the family dogs raised her. As she grew older, she began barking like the dogs and she was really never the same even when she was removed from the house and was placed in protective custody of the State.
Developmental psychology indicates that as children there are certain stages of development that are necessary to grow up to be well rounded individuals and touch certainly is one of them. Caring and nurture are essential in the development of children. A hug always certainly makes people feel better. It is a powerful tool. It is apart of social engineering.
So give someone a hug today and experience the healing powers of touch.
