Hi Ralph,

No I don't know if children of any culture had a hard time learning
how to wink. I tried teaching children how to wink in both the
U.S. and Mexico among the Maya, and they seemed to have
the same problem, which was simply muscle control. It seemed
to have been something you had to learn, like whistling. I remember
having to practice it before I could do it after seeing my uncles
wink at me as a child. Didn't that happen to you? I don't think I
published it to the group, but it is now.
