Portuguese term or phrase: trocas afetivas
No mundo ocidental é a família que vai dimensionar as práticas educativas da prole, compor o ambiente em que a criança vai viver, e estabelecer modos e limites das interações entre pais, filhos, netos. Cabe a ela propiciar o desenvolvimento nos primeiros anos de vida do bebê, condições para a formação da identidade e manter a convivência e as ^^^trocas afetivas^^^ entre seus membros, incluindo o cuidado ao focalizar pais e filhos e à transmissão de valores.

Thanks in advance.

Affective Exchanges Between High Risk Mothers and Infants

Joy D. Osofsky and Alice Eberhart-Wright

In this paper, we will describe patterns of emotional matching and mismatching in adolescent mothers and their infants which relate to developmental risk. This work has been influenced by recent studies of high risk parents and infants which highlight a changing view of emotional communication and signalling in infancy.

agree  Donna Sandin: I would use "affectionATE exchanges" and I'm pretty sure this is the best answer. All that "baby talk" that normally sober adults indulge in when they meet a baby, and exchanges between parents and with their older children etc. that create atmosphere
